I've got Windows 10 on 1 SSD and Ubuntu Server on another SSD. When I boot my machine it automatically takes me straight to the Ubuntu login screen. I would like to see the GRUB menu with the option of running windows instead of using the BIOS to boot. What do I need to do to get the GRUB menu to appear ?

I think it's a bug that is still not fixed (in February 2016):

Temporary solution:
https://gist.github.com/LeahCim/9332432
Optionally I modify /etc/default/grub
GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=false
GRUB_TIMEOUT=5
GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=""
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=""
GRUB_DEFAULT=saved
GRUB_SAVEDEFAULT=true
(default and savedefault should remember to boot the last booted OS)
After everything run:
sudo update-grub
to apply options,
Reboot.
