i bought a scan 3xs recently with two drives thinking they would both have win 10 pro installed on both they havent ones for storage,
Laptop came with a recovery usb so is it possible to install win 10 pro on the storage drive its an evo 750 ssd and use the same serial number thats on the first drive?

Don't focus on the word 'storage'. It's just a second drive. You can have games or applications on it, not just "movies".

You can have games, especially Steam games, installed on more than one drive.

Like this:
Steam games location
In the steam client:
Steam
Settings
Downloads
Steam Library Folders
Add library folder

If I'm reading this correctly, you want the same OS on two the drives?
Why? Absolutely not needed.

1 drive for the OS, 1 drive for storage.
 




You could do that but it will not accomplish anything.
