If you don't need the blazing speed of a PCI-e NVMe drive for your Windows installation, you can pick up a 2.5" SSD SATA drive in the size of your choice fairly inexpensively. You'll also need a bracket or a sled for installing a 2.5" drive in a 3.5" bay. Or, if the M.2 slot in the Designare (I have a different mobo) supports a SATA M.2 drive, you could pick up one of those for a little more than a 2.5" SSD SATA.
Then temporarily remove your Catalina drive, install whatever new drive you purchase, and boot from the windows installer. If you haven't created a Windows 10 install USB yet, and, if you have a PC, google something like "create windows 10 installer". It's a very simple process. If you have no PC, then google something like "create Windows 10 installer on macOS". You'll come up with several guides to choose from.
When Windows is installed, reinstall the Catalina drive, and Windows SHOULD appear as another boot choice on the Clover screen.
Thanks for your answer. But if I "can pick up a 2.5" SSD SATA drive", should I be worried by the M2M and M2P slot issue ?
