My company's IT has a standard Windows load for new laptops that evidently installs only to a SATA HDD by default, I.e it does not recognize an SSD that I custom ordered for the machine. The new laptop comes with a 500 GB SATA HDD and a 250GB m2 SSD. I am asking them to install on the SSD and the easiest way I can think of is to disable the 500 GB HDD before trying to do the standard load ...

Not having the laptop to play with, Is there a way to disable the HDD in BIOS so that the installation will not see it at all during Windows load? Please help ...
