    Thanks rjohnson11,
     
    I would add you should remove all HDs if you choose to install Win 10 on a new drive; not just your current C: drive as stated in this "2. Swap out disks."
     
    Windows OS has a habit of spanning ALL the HDs it can find during the install process. 
     
    Removing any of the "extra" drives in the future can stop Win OS from loading..... leaving you with an error message and a mess to work through.

    Same here, I have countdown like bomb will explode, 4 days more.
    I download Windows 10 and prepare .iso file, I'm still not ready for Windows 10.
    One more time Windows 7 x64 UEFI, than I will see.
     
    I disconnect all devices anyway even with Windows 7 except OS drive when I install new system.
