Mounting a whiteboard

I know this is kind of a dumb beginner question, but I could use some help even after looking online. I'm mounting an Amazon basics whiteboard onto the wall. Weighs about 5 lbs. I have a stud finder and marked out where the studs are. Is mounting to a stud better than drywall? For studs, I don't use an anchor, right? Would I still pre-drill? How do I know which drill bit to use? I think the directions are indicating 1/4, but I have two of those in my kit (pictured). submitted by /u/Miserable_Cup_9335 [link] [comments]
