Hi I have 2 ssd on 1 mb and I was wondering if it is ok to install windows 10 64bit on 1 and windows 7 32bit on the other I'm trying to do away with 1 pc tower instead of having 2 towers.
 
Solution
Yes you can.
Why continue with Win 7..I don't know. But yes you can.

Install the 2 OS's with only that target drive connected. SSD 1 = Win 10. Disconnect it and then connect SSD 2...install Win 7.

And as contrary to the above, don't put those in a RAID array. In general consumer use, RAID of any stripe is rarely the answer.


I have a few programs that don't work with the 64bit so I was trying to keep a 32bit os as well

You can do it, install windows 10 on drive, shutdown and pull the drive out. Then install windows 7 on the other drive. Make sure you only have 1 harddrive in at a time.

Then download easyBCD, once installed and configured it will pause the boot up and allow you to pick what OS you want to run without going into the bios and selecting the drive. I do this with one of our computers at work with Win7 and XP
