Lenovo Y580, Win10 upgrade question...

[tinpanalley]

I have the Y580 model that came with a small 32GB SSD for speedy booting of Windows 7. I stopped using it when I upgraded to Windows 8. Is there any way to benefit from it now when upgrading to Windows 10? Any way to maybe get Windows to boot from that SSD but then run everything else from the 1TB internal HDD?

Also, is it common practice to update all drivers and BIOS first before going to Windows 10? Just upgraded a Windows tablet and Dell and another forum told me that doing those upgrades first help Win10 install better.


Thank you!!
