Windows 10: dual boot Windows 10 Pro, these two NVMe's will get linked

My Motherboard



ASUS PRIME Z370-A / Motherboard / ATX / LGA1151 Socket / Z370



supports two NVMe/PCIe SSD m.2



I currently have OS Win 10 Pro installed in one... but OS has updates/install-software problems - can Not do neither of the two.



I plan install a second NVMe card, and install OS Windows 10 Pro as dual boot system



Eventually - in 1 year - i will remove first NVMe



What advice can you give... If dual boot Windows 10 Pro, these two NVMe's will get linked? Choose during boot what os boot?



Exist preferably other way - Not linked - but choose which one disk to boot - each time - from BIOS/UEFI... if differ from last boot? And Not choose during boot, ... like linux dual boot system, not like this.


If Not remove the old disk - during install of the second OS to new disk

The two Disks will linked - like Linux Dual boot, and I will have choice choose OS - Not from UEFI, but like GRAB/Linux choice ????



My Two HDD / in RAID 1 mode will Not affected correct??? If i not disconnect sata slot or power from HDDs, correct?

Dual Booting with Windows 8.1


The procedure below will allow you to boot Windows separately or in dual boot configuration.
Here's what I recommend to do:

1. Disconnect the drive containing Windows 8.1
2. Install Windows 10 with one drive connected.
3. After step 2, reconnect the drive containing Windows 8.1
4. Boot up Windows 8.1. Open disk management and take a note of the drive letter of Windows 10 OS.
   NOTE: if you boot up Windows 10, then take a note of Windows 8.1 drive letter
5. Open Admin command prompt and type: bcdboot X:\windows where X: is the drive letter of Windows 10 (Windows 8.1 if you boot from Windows 10 in step 4)
6. Reboot the PC. You should have a dual boot screen.

NOTE: To break off the dual boot setting, Win+R->msconfig->boot and delete the none default entry on the list.

NVME 951 vs 950 pro dual boot

I have Intel 750 PCIE NVMe SSD and have dual boot on the X99-S. The mobo firmware must support booting from NVMe, but that is already a year old tech, most modern boards have had their BIOS updates for this.
BTW, the NVMe part of the UEFI bios screen is just that, a statement, nothing to set up on my Sabertooth Z98, Gene Z98 board or on this X99.
I remember that the Intel NVMe even booted correctly without the specific BIOS update on the Sabertooth, without being mentioned in any BIOS screen, it just booted! *Smile
