SD, I seem to remember installing Windows 7 on a USB 3.0 port could be fun, partly because third-party vendors had to write their own USB3.0 drivers for Win 7and a couple of them introduced registry problems. I think FTDI highlighted this issue first. Also, the USB 3.0 driver would install as Base rather than BBE. An easy fix if you're Einstein. Things may have magically improved since then, but I'd probably start with the Win10 install to give me a boot drive from which to fart around with the Win7 drive.
Or run Win7 as a VM...
Anyway, WT might also consider a dual- or quad-drive enclosure with a drive switch, assuming both drives don't need to be accessible at the same time. There are switches that fit in the floppy drive slot.
