I have not installed Windows 10 yet and the only drive install at this time is the SSD
I've made a "Install macOS High Sierra" USB as instructed at tonymacx86. Unibeast partitions the drive into Install macOS High Sierra (I copied the MultBeast app here) and EFI. I put the USB drive into a usb 2 port, power on and enter the bios. Disabled VT-d and Secure Boot. I get 3 boot options, the SSD, USB sandDisk and UEFI sandDisk. The system will not boot from USB sandDisk but the UEFI sandDisk will load the Clover splash screen showing Boot OS X Install from Install macOS High Sierra and the other Clover options. When I try to Boot I get the screen showing the apple logo and a progress bar but it hangs about 2/3 of the way and I get the white loading gear turning until it finally freezes, I've left it for 2 hours with no change.
It's probably time for me to learn more about Clover. Looking for suggestions for a beginner. Thanks
