I'm looking at converting a few rigs from USB/nvOC to SSD/Windows.

What's the cheapest way of achieving this? $40 120GB SSD? will it run on 60-64GB SSD?
Do I need a particular version of Windows to get 7-8 GPU (nvidia) working? or just Windows 10 patched up to date?


Get 120GB or even 256GB.  Windows 10 will mostly make your life easier but when you have everything set up, turn off the updates. Somewhere in this thread, within the past month or so, there were some links to som e good utilities to help stop with the Windows updates.  Windows 10 Fall Creators Update worked well across a number of rigs, Nvidia/AMD cards, I think that is 1703 but would have to check.

With Windows, a 60GB SSD probably isn't going to cut it for very long.
