You have 3 drives. You want to install Windows 10 on your SSD right? The other two have a windows OS on them.

Yeah use Windows Media Creation tool to make a Windows 10 usb flash drive and use that to install Windows 10 on your SSD while your other drives are unplugged. When you replug them after the windows 10 SSD install just do what you want with them.
- That 2060 super fans won't spin unless the temperature is like 60C. So don't worry about the fans not spinning. You can install afterburner later and do a custom fan curve if you want but the fans not spinning is totally normal.

- What you have to do is create a windows 10 usb flash drive using Windows Media Creation Tools and unplug all your other drives. Leave your SSD plugged. Plug that usb flash drive and install windows 10 on your SSD. When this is over you plug your HDD.
 
If you're using a new Windows installation your Ethernet device should be using the default Windows drivers. It should work.

What we need is more information.

What drives do you have? brand and model.

What OS are you using and is it a new OS install?

You cannot use an old OS installation on new hardware and if you do you will be chasing problems for weeks until you decide to do a clean install. When you install new hardware you install a clean OS.
Alright i think im catching on and can i use my phone as a usb? My flashdrive seems to only be 7.50 gb (even though it said 8gb when i got it)
