Help Choosing the Right Location for Windows 11 Installation

Asked by GamerGal123
I just got my first gaming laptop, and I noticed it doesn't come with an OS pre-installed. I'm trying to install Windows 11 myself, but during the installation process, it asks me to select a location. I'm completely unsure which option to choose. Can anyone guide me on this?

Make sure to always back up your data before making changes to your system settings. As for the installation, when you reach the part where you need to select a disk, generally, you'd want to choose Disk 0, which is your internal drive. Just follow the prompts to create a partition, allocate the maximum space, and you should be good to go! Good luck!

LaptopGuru88: Yeah, you don't want to install Windows on the USB drive. Just stick with Disk 0 and you'll be fine!
