I think the question sums it up. I have a second, separate internal SSD that has been formatted FAT32, and I'd like to install Boot Camp, but have the entire drive dedicated to the windows system. Is this possible?
MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.8)
No. Put the SSD in the main bay. If you Mac came with a built-in Optical drive put it back in it's original place and install Windows. Once fully functional, move disks around on the SATA bus. Be aware of SATA issues on Macs older than 2011.

I don't have an optical drive. Boot Camp is saying you need one to install Windows, is a mounted .iso not sufficient?
On Mac models which originally came with built-in Optical drives, unfortunately, you need it. The workarounds are fairly labor intensive.
Never mind. Thanks for your time.
Can I install Boot Camp on a separate internal SSD?
