Putting Windows 7 into a new rig using SSD

[Kasey Michael]

I'm building a new rig and want to know the best way to install Windows 7 onto my SSD.

If it makes any difference I have a 120 GB Samsung 850 EVO SSD and a Asus M5A97 R2.0 MB

Burn a Windows 7 Disc and install straight from the DVD, make sure you disconnect your other hard drives if your not 100% on reinstallation as reformatting them while installing windows is just a click away

So I'll be using one SSD and one HHD. Just don't even physically install the HHD untill Windows is installed?

Correct. Best to only have the drive you want Windows installed on connected when you run the install. I usually have the other drive in the case and just disconnect power or SATA until Windows install is done.
