So as you all probalbly know the newest Linus tech tips video is about ssd + hdd optimization, after I watched to video I realized I should buy a ssd, so I did. The installation went well (since its only 2 cables) but when I installed windows through my windows 10 usb stick I did not get the option to choose witch disk to install windows on, it just went straight to the installation and reinstalled it on my hdd again. So I tried again and nothing. After that I went to Settings app, Update & security,  Recovery, “Get started” to wipe my drive and then install windows. But windows installed automaticly to my hdd again. Now I'm out of ideas, I hope anyone on the forum has the answer because it seems like a simple problem with a easy solution.

1) unplug everything except your SSD

 

2) plug in your windows USB and install

 

3) plug your HDD back in, but make sure its not in the boot order in your UEFI
