Best way to proceed with fresh install of windows 10 on SSD

[NightHawkRambo]

So I recently got a new SSD and installed Windows 10 on it, I'm wondering how to make it so my HDD doesn't take over again and become the boot part and leave my SSD in the dust.

The first time I installed Windows 10 on my SSD and then hooked up my HDD to the system even with the boot order where I put the SSD first somehow the HDD ignored those settings and started up, so my SSD was left doing nothing.

So I reinstalled Windows 10 on my SSD with my HDD unattached for now, I was wondering what I have to do to make sure the SSD is the boot and the HDD is just a storage device.

Computer Information

OS: Windows 10
CPU: Intel i5 2500K
RAM: Corsair 8 GB (2 sticks)
SSD: Samsung 850 EVO 500 GB

Put the hdd back in go into the bios, change the bootdisk to the ssd save settings

Save and exit setup. Then it should boot from the SSD, if you've made it the bootdisk
