Just bought a new desktop PC. Dell XPS 8700 i7 4GB Graphics with 1TB HDD, 16GB RAM, etc. Bought a separate 500GB Samsung EVO SSD and made it my OS disk. The 1TB HDD is now my backup drive. I had upgraded it to Windows 10 on the HDD and tested it out. Then I moved the OS to the SSD. The speed improvement with booting up, etc. was phenomenal. Highly recommend it.

The only glitch is that for some reason I can't do a full system image backup to my HDD which was the initial OS. Data (documents, files, etc.) backups work just fine. Any clue as to what I need to do to enable the full image backup? I removed the EFI partition from the HDD per a recommendation on the web, but still didn't fix it.

Overall I am very pleased with our new PC. Windows 10 is a bit different, but not that bad.
