Hello!
I've just finished building my first-ever PC after 2 days (yay), but I'm currently at another roadblock... when at the part where I have to choose which drive I want to install Windows 10 on, I'm given two options:
Screenshot courtesy of Paul's Hardware since I unable to screenshot from my end currently; just imagine a second, Drive 1, is there.
The problem is, both of these drivers are clean and 1TB since I currently have a 1TB Samsung 860 Evo SSD AND a 1TB Samsung 970 EVO Plus NVMe M.2, and I cannot tell which drive is the NVMe M.2 drive cause that's where I want to install Windows for the fast boot times. The last thing I want is to install Windows on the slower drive.
So my question in short is, would the faster NVMe M.2 drive be Drive 0 or Drive 1? For those curious, my motherboard is the ASUS ROG Strix Z390-E Gaming

Edit #1: Removed the regular SSD and proceeded to install Win10 on the NVM.e, and it turned out successful! (was easier than I thought it would it) Thanks so much everyone!
