LaCiE Rugged Thunderbolt for booting Windows 10 & El Cap externally?

[Steelbom]

I've been looking around for a while now for Thunderbolt enclosures that I can use to boot with externally. I've got an iMac 14,2 and a 500GB Samsung 850 w/ a partition for Windows 10 and one for OS X El Capitan. Currently booting off a USB 3 UASP drive.

I'm going to pickup the HDD model and replace the internal drive with my SSD, after installing their Thunderbolt drivers on Windows.

Anyone done this with this enclosure or with another?

Can Windows 10 boot off an external drive?

Yep. I'm doing it via UEFI off an external USB 3 enclosure w/ UASP.

Bought a Transcend USB 3 UASP enclosure, popped the SSD inside. Connected via USB 3 to my iMac (2013 27). Works nicely, but was a little tricky putting both Windows and Mac on the same external drive.
