Reformat m.2 drive

I upgraded my boot drive and now want to use the old m.2 drive as a backup. How do I get the computer to boot to the new drive so I can reformat the old boot drive as it keeps booting to the old drive even though I changed the boot record in the BIOS.

Display quality

http://www.dell.com/en-us/shop/productdetails/alienware-17-laptop/dkcwkblg0733 This is the best link I could get from Dell's website. It describes the different display options offered. I was hoping someone else had this particular laptop and could comment on the advantages of each display type.

I am going to purchase an 17"Alienware laptop. Can someone tell me which display is best. The optional uhd is $250 more. Is the display worth the extra money?

EVGA 220-GS-0850-V1 problem

The EVGA supernova GS 850 is 10 months old. That's why I didn't think it was the Mobo. Also I had the mobo company tech support troubleshoot and they determined to replace the Mobo.

Thanks for all the suggestions. The need to carry around an external drive along with the laptop kind of defeats the point of portability.

You might look at Silverstone Grandia series HTPC. They make some very nice cases that would work for you.

Do the number of cores in a CPU determine the number of lanes? Which cpu has the most lanes?
