Installing 2x M2 memory, what about the boot manager?

BySmartRules June 18, 2023March 29, 2025

Hello everyone,

I'm going to be building a new system soon, and I'm going to install two M2 drives in it. My question is, how is the boot manager doing in the meantime?

Back then it was always like this: you installed the SSD first, installed Windows on it and only then did you connect the HDD so that the boot manager wasn't installed on it as well, but what about today with two M2 storage devices?

First install one, put Windows on it and then install the other one or does that no longer matter?

PC shows screen that I should insert Windows CD but I don't have one?

Hey, I wanted to reset my PC to factory settings and had a few complications because it wouldn't work for whatever reason. Anyway, this screen appears: Unfortunately, I don't have a Windows CD or a CD drive connected. Is there a way to solve this problem without a CD?
