You are absolutely right. The drive is connected using a Voyager S3 SATA to USB adapter (http://www.newertech.com/products/voyagerq.php).

Yes. I chose automatic installation. Before using the SSD, I formatted it using the Disks utility provided by Ubuntu 14.04 (my main working computer). There were no partitions in the SSD before installing CentOS.

I'm looking into CentOS documentation right now, but thought about short-cutting the process if someone has a direct where I can read what I need to, instead of sifting through countless pages available.
