[SOLVED] Dual boot from different M.2 SSDs?

[Blumpy]

I would like to dual boot Windows 10 Home and Solus Linux from separate M.2 SSDs on the same motherboard. I know it can be done on SATA III disk drives by unplugging one drive, installing Windows, drivers, etc. on it and doing the same thing on the other with Solus making sure grub is included. Then plugging in both and having grub recognize that Windows is there. Next boot, grub should give you choice of OS. Oversimplification, but that is how I understand it.
Is it the same for dual M.2 SSDs on the same motherboard?
My choice of motherboard and drives for a new build depend on whether two OSs on two NVME SSDs is possible.
ASUS Tuff Gaming X570 Plus (WiFi)
Ryzen 5 3600
G.Skill Flame X 3200MHz Cl-14 16GB (2x8GB)
2 x Samsung 970 EVO Plus 500GB

Sorry about misspelling SSDs in the question. I'm using a phone. I hate it.

Is this something everybody thinks I should "just know"? I have spent days looking on the internet for an answer to this question... to no avail. I find stuff on how to do this with cabled hard drives, but absolutely nothing on whether it can be done with M.2 NVME drives on the same motherboard. I'm sure it's been tried. I just want to know if it works. I don't have the money to waste on parts for a new build that are not able to do what I want when I could have done it another way that I do know works.

I am planning on dual booting Windows 10 Home and Solus Linux Budgie. I am planning on using an ASUS Tuff Gaming X570 Plus (WiFi) motherboard (rated for being able to use two NVME SSDs) and two Samsung EVO Plus 500GB SSDs. There would be a Ryzen 5 3600 and 16GB Flare X 3200mhz Cl-14 memory onboard the MB. Is it possible to install one OS on each SSD... and what would be the installation procedure if possible?

Sure. That's a common setup.

Install Windows, with only the desired drive connected.
Power off, disconnect that Windows drive.
Connect the desired drive for Solaris.
Install.

Reconnect all the other drives.
When you boot up, interrupt the boot process and choose which one to boot from.

So using the SSDs on the motherboard is just like using plugged in SATA drives as far as dual booting is concerned? I am soooooo relieved to hear that. I didn't want to start over looking for parts for my new build. Thanh you.
