⏰ 0:20 UEFI's Advantages
UEFI is better than Legacy BIOS with the following advantages:
1. Legacy BIOS uses the MBR disk while UEFI uses the GPT hard drive. The major difference between those two partition styles is that MBR can only support up to 2TB.
2. UEFI can enhance the boot time and elevate the computer speed, which will make a big difference when you install a large hard drive on your device.
3. Compared with BIOS, the UEFI comes with the Secure Boot feature. It can make the boot process much more securer.
So it's better to change legacy to UEFI.

If you are sure to convert Legacy to UEFI, detailed steps are listed as follows:
1. After changing the Legacy to UEFI in your firmware, you can boot your computer from a Windows installation disk.
2. At the Windows Setup screen, press Shift + F10 to open a command prompt.
3. Type “diskpart” and use the command “list disk - select disk - clean - convert gpt”.
4. Now, you can go back and reinstall Windows. If you try to install Windows without these steps, you will get the error “Windows cannot be installed to this disk” after you change BIOS to UEFI mode.
