Is there a way to force C: as boot drive?

[Doomer]

I'm getting ready to reload Windows and due to the somewhat inaccessibility of my server it would be most convenient if I didn't have to open it up and disconnect all but the OS drive. I'm old school and prefer my boot drive to be C:

Thanks

Set it in bios.

You can run into issues installing Windows with more than one drive connected. For some reason, Windows loves to put the MBR on the wrong drive in these situations.

Maybe this can Help.

Thanks. I'll just open her up and disconnect the other drives.

Done deal. Loaded Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard then had to reactivate every single drive. I didn't plug in one of the SAS connectors into the LSI controller all the way so 4 drives were missing and 2 of my mirrored arrays went goofy. But at the end of the day all was sorted out so all is well. Hopefully I can stick with 2012 R2 for a long time. I really don't enjoy redoing a server. Especially when it's got 20 HDs in it spread across 3 controllers.
