Thank you Magnus, very much. Windows is on the first SATA port,
though. Any difference in the configuration of Grub since Windows is
on the first SATA port?

That's difficult indeed. Grub will be installed in the MBR of the first disk and as far as I know will need its files to be on the same disk - in a FAT32, ext2/3/4, xfs, jfs, ... (not NTFS) partition.

Having Arch on the first BIOS disk including grub is probably easier, but you have to do some magic device-swapping in Windows' grub entry, which will otherwise refuse to start. I don't exactly remember the details.
