For those of you installing w10 on unpartitioned space
I clean installed w10 yesterday and remember someone on this forum suggesting installing Windows on unpartitioned space (Windows installer will partition drive as it sees fit). Well, for me, it didn't end too well.
UEFI partition style. (On a 256GB SSD)
1st partition -> EFI (100MB). Small cluster used, so partition wasn't properly 4k aligned.
2nd partition -> OS. Ok. But no MSR partition.
3rd partition -> Recovery partition. I prefer to reallocate those on the OS partition.
After tinkering with Macrium Reflect. I cleaned the whole disk and recreated all partitions. Thus:
1st partition -> EFI (260 MB). 4k cluster sign for proper alignment.
2nd partition -> MSR partition (16 MB).
3rd partition -> OS (and recovery folder). 75GB
4th partition -> User data. All remaining space.
