Hi all,
I want to do a fresh install of Windows 10 (from a bootable USB stick) on my Windows assigned SSD as it's becoming a little cluttered and slow. I have High Sierra installed on a second SSD and two HDD's (each acting as storage for both respective OS's).
I'm worried that when I perform the clean Windows 10 install that the installer might be confused as to what drive to install to. I am wondering if I will need to unplug the High Sierra SSD and both storage HDD's so as not to confuse the Windows 10 installer, or can I just leave them plugged in?
Hardware:
Motherboard: MSI Z170A Gaming Pro Carbon
CPU: Intel i7 6700K
GPU: MSI GTX 1070 8GB
RAM: Corsair Vengeance 32GB DDR4
SSD: 1x Samsung 970 EVO 256GB M.2 SSD (Windows 10 Boot drive) and 1x Samsung 870 PRO 256GB SATA SSD (macOS Boot drive)
HDD: 2x Seagate Barracuda 4TB HDD @7200RPM
PSU: EVGA SuperNova G2 1000W
