Last time I did it I just booted from my Windows USB and and installed on the blank drive. after everything was setup I installed only th bootcamp drivers I wanted. I imagine you can point bootcamp to the drive you want Windows on but I don't know for sure.

I like separate drives for everything that way if one fails or gets corrupted it doesn't affect any other

As long as all SSDs (especially the one that for Windows) is installed via the native SATA 2 port, everything will be very easy.
