Dell 7510 add USB and 2nd Drive to boot sequence

I have a Dell 7510 (2-SSD drives) and I am using UEFI.  I would like to run/boot UBUNTU 16.04 USB Live and Linux Mint 18 USB Live from the USB port.  After testing from the USB ports I will then install them into the two PCIe SSD drives and change the boot sequence to run one or the other. 

When I look at the UEFI boot sequence I do not see a USB option or the second PCIe SSD drive.

Can you help me add the USB and other drive to the boot sequence table?

 

 

 

Another help with be appreciated

    It is not possible to add to the boot sequence table. Yours may look different, but what I see here is what is offered by the BIOS =

    I hope that is not true.  My boot sequence table lists one thing UBUNTU.  There's NO other items.  Are you telling me I have a Precision 7510 that will not boot from a DVD drive or a recovery USB.  

    My screen 

    Boot Sequence

    X  UBUNTU                                                                       UBUNTU

    ---- BOOT LIST OPTION -------------

    o Legacy                                                                         [ ADD BOOT OPTION]                  [View]

    X UEFI                                                                            [DELETE BOOT OPTION]

    There's a DELL Article http://www.dell.com/support/article/us/en/19/SLN142679/EN 

    I was hoping for more information

    What I and that aricle were listing were the actual BIOS screens for Windows systems. I have never seen that Ubuntu boot screen. Moving this to the Linux board. Maybe they can assist.
