Need help with multiple drive setup in ASUS k55vm-sx120d

1.Want to use SSD as primary drive and put current HDD in hard-drive caddy(by removing the DVD-drive).

Will it work?Which hard-drive caddy should I purchase?

2. Do I need to convert MBR to GPT to support SSD+HDD combo?(The motherboard supports UEFI but ASUS has provided BIOS( version k55vm.211))

3. Will I be able to dual boot linux+windows 10 on my primary SSD(and use HDD in the caddy to support storage only)?
