New Blade User With Some Questions
Hi guys,
I recently purchased a Blade 15 Advanced Edition and had some questions about it as it seems software updates and drivers are done differently from other laptops.
1. Current W10 version is 1909, can I update the stock install to 20H2 without issues?
2. If a reinstall happens, is any functionality lost over the stock W10 install?
3. Am I right in thinking the drivers are handled by the windows update and not obtained through Razer site or Razer Synapse?
If anyone has installed their own fresh copy of the latest Windows 10 I'd be interested to hear your experience. I am upgrading to a 8TB SSD so looking to install a fresh copy of W10Pro

Yes you can update it manually to 20H2, it’s independent from synapse nor Razer website, windows update is for new windows features like nvidia drivers update for optimization and isn’t bios or Razer software update. It might sometimes comes with bugs that effects some features like battery life but current 20H2 to me doesn’t effect my blade stealth battery life still same long as 1909.
On mentioned stealth I didn’t upgrade the ssd yet but on other Blade, advanced 2018, I upgraded it on day one and straight clean install through window usb drive. But I’d keep the original one in case I’ve to send it back for repair or sell it down the road. Some other do cloning to the original one (you can do that as well before the pro upgrade) but the later I didn’t do on blade 15, fresh install fells better personally.
