A MacPro allows installing Windows via Bootcamp on the non-OSX Disk. Remove the disk(s) that are not needed, which can be installed back once Windows is installed. Run BCA and pick the designated drive.

Please start at How to install Windows using Boot Camp - Apple Support and also see Boot Camp: Solve partition creation problems.

If you do not want to use Bootcamp, Parallels can use virtual disk on any drive and install a Virtual Machine with Windows.
