Imagine setting up a fresh PC by assembling a new machine running Windows, adding a flash drive for storage, booting from an SSD, and linking another drive from your old PC.

Theoretically? not much. Your UEFI may attempt to boot from it if, for some reason, it determines that's your boot priority.

It would start using the operating system from the last one that was activated. You can alter this setting by picking another boot sequence in the BIOS.

Eh, haven't you seen Linus that closely? They use benchmark drives with Win10 installed (plus all programs). So they just insert the drive into the new system. For the system it's just another drive running a different OS. The BIOS boot sequence determines which drive is checked first for the operating system. If several OS are found in the boot queue, you can pick which one to start. If only one drive is present, the UEFI will skip all others.
