How do I do this? I plan on formatting my ssd which contains my windows 8 installation however, i cannot boot into windows 10 without the windows 8 ssd being connected. How do I desperate the dual booting of these systems?

Ryzen 5 3600 stock | 2x16GB C13 3200MHz (AFR) | GTX 760 (Sold the VII)| ASUS Prime X570-P | 6TB WD Gold (128MB Cache, 2017)

Samsung 850 EVO 240 GB 

138 is a good number.

Type msconfig into your search and press enter. You can set dual boot there

I already have it set up like this.

However, when I reboot my computer and unplug my windows 8 SSD (They're seperate drives, not partitions) I cannot boot into windows 10 as it says 'Reboot and select proper boot device or Insert Boot Media in selected boot device and press a key'

So i guess Win10 is on your other HDD/SSD? Try making it as primary boot device.

Yeah, I have done that already in my UEFI, however it won't boot in properly without the other ssd being plugged in.
