    Hey guys,

    I have to do a fresh install of windows 7 on my ssd for my m11xr2, but I deleted my windows 7 boot usb a couple of days ago, and was kind of curious about something.

    Right now, my ssd is in my desktop for benching, but couldn't I just install windows 7 onto my ssd while it's in my desktop, and then put it into my m11x when it's finished?

    It sounds like it'd work fine, but I'm not sure if there'd be any problems down the road. Just curious! :)
