I am trying to install Windows 10 in my new laptop (Lenovo Legion Y530-15ICH) (user guide), it has an M.2 SSD and a HDD.
When I got to the screen to select the disk where to install the OS, I select my SSD and hit "Next", then it tells me the usual, that it is going to create a partition and so on. I found out when reviewing that instead of making the system partition on the SSD, it has put it in the HDD.
How may I make the Windows 10 installer to create the system partition on the SSD? I know there are some question related to moving such partition if installed incorrectly, but because I am doing a fresh installation I would prefer to do it correctly from the start.
P.S.: I have checked another questions similar to mine, but they do not seem to answer it. And yes, I can probably disconnect the HDD and install Windows, but I would prefer not to dismantle the laptop.
P.P.S.: I want to do it this way, because I've already tried ignoring it and while Windows works, when I try installing Ubuntu to dual-boot, the boot loader does not seem to work and it only boots Windows.

If no better answer presents itself, pages 32, 34, and 42 of the hardware maintenance manual (first web link added into your question) show how to disconnect the HDD without removing it; Detach the hard disk drive connectors in the directions shown by arrow 1 on page 42, then stop and go no further. – K7AAY – 2019-06-21T21:17:34.610
@K7AAY Thank you, I ended up doing that. I also did a system image in case something happens and I have to reinstall the OS so I don't need to take apart de computer. – Cypert – 2019-06-22T21:47:28.823
