    Can anyone tell me if the recovery built into the Gigabyte laptops (P27GV2) allows you to select where to install if you have multiple drives? I'm going to be putting in an M550 SSD and was wondering if the recovery option would be a possible way to migrate the OS.

    Only if you boot the recovery from USB. What I did was log in the installed OS first, make a recovery USB then boot up using that. I formatted everything first before selecting the install location too.
