I have 1 1TB HDD as my windows 7 operating system. I have another 500GB HDD that has Linux Kali installed. I want to put the Kali HDD in my pc and have the option to boot into either Windows 7 on one HDD or Kali on the other HDD. Is there a way to have this done? I know both use different styles of boot initiations. Any help would be appreciated.

Connect your both HDD's and boot to windows. Download EasyBCD and go to edit boot menu> delete both options. Go to add new entry> select type: Vista/7/8(will work for win10 also)> Type your desired name> select the drive and click add entry.
Now, go to Linux tab and select type: GRUB 2> type your desired name > select the drive click add entry.
Go to edit boot menu and click on Save settings.
