    How to choose which drive to boot from, OUTSIDE of bios.


    Hello. I recently built a new system with dual operating systems on different internal ssd's. My question is, is there a way to choose what drive to boot before windows starts up? I have a editing side and gaming side and I would like the option to choose which drive to boot from without having to do it in bios each time turn on computer or restart it. Both Drives are installed with windows 10 pro. Thanks in advance....

    :)

    Annoying having to go into the bios each time though. And for me not a option unless i run 2 arrays.

    iv'e had too many problems to list like that, thats why i suggested disconnecting the original drive(s) and using the BIOS to choose what drive to boot from.
