Solved by DXMember,
BIOS will recognize it as a single storage device regardless, BIOS is not aware of partitions or file systems.
If you intend to use it as a bootable Windows setup drive you will have to create a primary partition and store the setup there. You can create a bunch of additioncal secondary partitions but you will not be able to boot from them.
You can boot only from MBR (Master Boot Record)
