Windows 7 not starting with 2nd HDD
Having lots of fun with this one.
Have a Mid 2012 MBP Classic. Recently purchased a HDD caddy for a second hard drive and a SSD (Crucial M500 480GB).
My intention is to run OS X Mountain Lion on a 400GB partition on the SSD, Boot Camp Windows 7 on the remaining 80GB, and then format the old 750GB Apple HDD in exFAT for storage both OSes can access.
I have everything running at the moment apart from the fact that I can't start Windows. I just get the usual 'No bootable device' error when I try.
If I disconnect the old 750GB drive it starts fine. If I run Windows as a VM in Parallels it starts fine. Otherwise I can't start it.
One thing I did have to do during Boot Camp setup is format the install 80GB as NTFS, which I assume is normal.
How can I make this work? I have already tried rEFIt which makes no difference. Modifying stuff via diskpart in Windows will break things-I've been there before!
Does anyone else have a similar setup to the above?
MacBook Pro (15-inch Mid 2012), OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.4), Windows 7
