just installed second 250gb SSD on my iMac to install windows here. tried different ways and programs from internet but nothing helps . BootCamp can’t recognize second SSD, only shows main SSD.
Is this a good question?

BootCamp will only work off a single drive/partition where both macOS and Windows OS’s sit. You can use a second drive (or multiples) as data drives for either OS (or even other OS’s).
Your only means to run dual OS is full isolation (requiring a reboot to switch) without using a VM product. A Virtual Machine (VM) can do what you want but its much harder to setup with multiple drives and some products are not able to do it.

Can you see both drives after booting into MacOS and going into Disk Utility?

Yes Disk Utility shows both SSD. but BootCamp shows only main SSD. just talked with apple support and said that bootcamp will not allow install windows on second drive. I bought SSD, bought Sata cable for iMac and now discovered that can't install windows here, what the Hel l :|
