[Creating a little Lab]

Basically, the SSD is in my main Laptop, with the 750GB.

On the lenovo I have 1 of the 500GB ones.

So, having plenty of space left, I was also thinking about to put the SSD into the lenovo, to make it faster at least, when I'm traveling.

Indeed, thats why i would put kali on a USB stick at least, with encrypted persistence maybe.

The HDD's are 2.5".

Was thinking about to put Kali at at least one of the 3.0 stick. I dont like it to have it as a main OS :/

Hey guys,

I'm currently managing out my Hard drives and USB sticks I have lying around here.

I have the following setup:

• MSI GT70 (gaming laptop)
• Lenovo X201

• 128GB SSD (Samsung)
• 1TB HDD
• 750GB HDD
• 2x 500GB HDD
• 2x 16GB USB 3.0 stick
• 2x 1GB USB 2.0 stick
• 4x 8GB USB 2.0 stick

So, how would you setup a lab with this stuff? I can't think of a right way currently and struggle hard.

My bigger laptop I would like to use with the SSD, since it is my main rig and the more powerful one. Maybe install a mainstream distro on it and a couple of VMs for pentesting, researching etc. Maybe even Ubuntu or mint or something. At least something with a good Optimus support, since I know Linux with hybrid graphics can be a pain and can make a lot of headaches. Or maybe even use windows on it with some Linux VMs? Because of the driver support?

On the smaller one I would like to install something lightweight, arch with xfce?

USB sticks? Hard drives? Not sure.

I appreciate any suggestion. Thanks
