As a windows user, I'm switching to Fedora this week and trying to understand the procedures... I know that everything is clear and lots of YouTubers are helping in setting up and installing Fedora but, I have bought a new SSD drive that haven't been used before so I'm not sure how can I install Fedora as a first OS with it! can you please help me?
Once you have the downloaded .iso file written to a USB pen drive (or DVD) the graphical installation process is straightforward. The Fedora Documentation team is providing an excellent guide on how to install Fedora:
Just read or skim to through it
(FYI: when you read Anaconda somewhere, that's the name of Fedora's installer).
firstly go through this link given below , it gives step-by-step explanation to install fedora
(https://docs.fedoraproject.org/f28/in...) 1.download fedora iso image from official site 2.download fedora media writer , launch it and use it to extract iso into usb drive 3.restart ur system, press f2 or f10 or f12 to go to boot menu 4. select the usb menu in which u have extracted fedora image. 5.follow the steps given as per ur requirement... 6. u can select either automatic mode or custom mode , but as u r a new user go with automatic mode .... there u go .... use ur new os hope it helps...
You should have no problems. Most complications happens when someone tries to install Fedora on a disk and want to keep a pre-installed other OS. The install procedure will take care of setting up the disk partitions and creating the required file systems.

Are you keeping the Windows hard drive in there as well? If so, you may want to write a note to yourself before starting to make sure you don't format that drive by accident. Perhaps one is a different size? The Fedora installer is smart enough to warn you; though, and will try to use unformatted disk space first.
