Install Windows with 'Boot' Partition on different drive
Here's the situation. I have a Lenovo Edge E531 laptop which has a 2.5" SATA3 bay and an M.2 SATA3 slot.
The M.2 slot is meant for the OEM config option of having a cache SSD which I don't have.
I DO NOT know if you can boot from an SSD connected to the M.2 slot. Hence me asking here before purchasing the M.2 SSD.
Can I install Windows with the 'boot' partition on the main HDD, that simply points to all the 'Windows' and 'Program Files' files on the M.2 SSD (which appears as a normal drive to the system, just unsure if the firmware can boot from it).
Hope I explained it well enough.
