I have 5 disk drives, with two (same) OS's. Actually, two drives have Windows 7 and its secondary plex. From an earlier post: sata6g_1 HD0 SSD ubuntu 18.04 sata6g_2 HD1 WD5000 Ubuntu 18.04 sata3g_3 HD2 WD5000 windows 7 - not used sata3g_4 HD3 WD5000 backup sata3g_5 HD4 WD5000 windows 7 secondary plex- not used sata3g_6 DVD DRW-24B3LT sata6g_E1 (empty) sata6g_E2 (empty) I plan to keep the SSD Ubuntu install until I can get FreeBSD up and running the way I want. So, for now, I want to install FreeBSD on sata3g_5 HD4. My motherboard, ASUS P9X79 PRO has support for UEFI boot. Is it worth the effort to change everything to GPT, or, should I just use GPT on the FreeBSD disk? I am leaning toward the later, but, ... I think the future has a SSD for FreeBSD. Tom Dean
