Hey guys whats up. Been a long long time subscriber on YT since a little after razethew0rld change and I guess you could say secret creeper on the site but haven't been on the forums, first post here!
Anyways I got an odd question. I'm looking into ultrabooks and I pretty much have the laptop I want picked out, Asus S400CA, I'm going to buy it and put a 500gb samsung SSD in it. Here's my question...
I've worked with SSDs before and I've always heard imaging a HDD to SSD is not as good as a clean install on SSD. So I'd prefer to put the SSD in then load Win8 on it and start fresh, since it will be a new laptop I won't have anything on it. I know the Win8 license key will be on the bottom of the laptop and I can enter that to activate Win8 but I don't have any Win8 media.
So how would I go about this? Once I get the laptop can I call Asus and will they provide me with a Win8 disc (I have a usb cd drive I can use)? or should I try and find some other way of getting Win8 install disc then use the license key on bottom of laptop?
Help much appreciated thanks!
