Attention:
• The process of installing a new operating system deletes all the data on your internal storage drive,
including the data that were stored in a hidden folder.
• If your computer is equipped with both a hard disk drive and an M.2 solid-state drive, do not use the
M.2 solid-state drive as a bootable device. The M.2 solid-state drive is used for "cache" function and to
support the Intel Rapid Start Technology.
