No reason to work with OS that is installed on a MBR formatted drive that's running on a BIOS emulated machine (like some preinstalled windows), if you wish the fastest laptop, OS & applications! OS on a GPT formatted disk, booted with UEFI, is BETTER THEN MBR & BIOS! • Way Faster OS boot (I.E POST), with NO blinking underscore! • Better (auto) chances to recover info from bad/damaged sector/block! Mac os keyboard shortcuts. (Partition table is redundantly stored, checked using CRC) • No 2TiB limit on HDD size • and MORE: READ MORE &. The 'which OS should I choose'? In my opinion win 10 is faster in desktop/office work ( gaming: depends ) but the down side is the privacy headache. There are multiple scripts you MUST run, if you care about your own privacy!

As I KNOW by experience that win7,8.1,10 CAN WORK WITHOUT 'Windows RE tools' partition -> 'Windows RE tools' partition is NOT necessary!!
