Boot Priority

Got 2 hard drives in the machine - both are SATA and are Raided, have an external USB hard drive attached as well.

When I reboot the machine, it tries to boot from the External USB Hard Drive, instead of the Internal SATA Drives.

When I disconnect the USB drive, it boot just fine - I want to leave the USB drive connected @ all times
 
Why leave the usb drive connected and powered. Most usb drives don't have fans in them and if closed will get nice and toasty. just cut the power to the drive while you boot as soon as boot is done repower up the drive.

This case does have a fan and I am often away from the house, and need this system up at all times. Often there is a power outage or a windows update where the system reboots nightly. I need it to reboot back into the OS, instead of trying to boot to the USB Drive
