Question should i do anything in the bios before installing windows on a new ssd? choosing gpt or mbr in rufus?

[yyoussef101]

hey i have two questions.

1.
what should i do when installing the windows on my ssd, should i do anything in the bios before installing windows on it? what about my current hhd? i wanna keep it as an additional storage and install the windows on the ssd? do all this stuff need some work in the bios or not?

2.
i'm confused about what should i choose when creating a bootable usb drive in the partition scheme (gpt or mbr) (using rufus), i've read some stuff online but i'm still confused and i would like to get some recommendations. and the thing is my windows right now is already installed in the mbr mode and also i'm trying to install windows on a new ssd, and i've already activated the ssd and i choose the gpt mode in the disk management so my ssd is in the gpt mode, is it wrong that i choose the gpt mode for my ssd? and what if i choose mbr when making the bootable usb drive, will the windows install on a gpt ssd?

thanks!

Why Rufus?
Use the MediaCreation tool from MS.

Have ONLY the desired drive connected.
Connect any others later.
