Please, evaluate my W10 / W7 dual boot project.
I have been recently upgraded from Win7 Home x64 to Win 10.
Initially I was planning to quickly roll back to my old good Win 7.
But turned out I like Win10 more than I expected, so decided to make it my main OS from now on and use Win7 (I need it anyway, because of my old printer/scanner not supported by Win 10) as an additional OS in dual boot rig.
My upgraded W10 has been installed on my main 3TB Seagate HDD (with UEFI). I would like to wipe it out and do the clean install of W10 Anniversary edition as soon as ISO of its final version is available.
What I'm going to do next is :
1. remove above mentioned 3TB Seagate HDD from my tower and replace it with my other HDD - 500 GB Samsung.
2. clean install or rather restore from the image Windows 7 on this 500 GB Samsung HDD.
3. while Win 7 is already in place (on Samsung) - add up my main 3TB Seagate HDD with empty OS partition (or should it be an unallocated space ?).
4. Clean install Anniversary edition of Windows10 on it (Seagate) and mark it as my main OS from that time on.
I might have couple of detailed questions later on, but please tell me for now : is this scenario correct ? Any suggestions would be appreciated. :)
Thanks in advance.
