Just to match the usual approach and prevent misunderstandings, ensure BIOD is updated and secure boot is active (though it shouldn't be a big issue). Download a fresh W11 ISO. Use Rufus to build the flash drive and turn off TPM verification, along with disabling online accounts and BitLocker. Disconnect all drives except the one you intend to install. Set the USB drive as the boot device and verify BIOS supports the SSD. Save any changes and begin with the USB stick. The process should guide you to the Windows installer. Describe each screen clearly, noting when errors appear. Confirm whether you're working with a live environment or a full installation.

I can view all my drives and successfully installed Linux on one of them, letting it operate independently without using a USB drive. I plan to take photos once I’m back home. I also updated the BIOS using ezflash last evening.

Also verify the BIOS isn't in legacy mode but is configured for modern UEFI. Some older systems still support the CSM for legacy OSes like XP/W7, which can cause problems with newer versions. I once used Linux with Legacy enabled; it booted slowly. After switching to moderate UEFI, it started up quickly (needed a fresh install). Modern Windows likely won't handle legacy BIOS well either. With your new BIOS, all settings should reset to defaults—double-check everything as needed.

No visible signs of issues with the drives, yet the same problem appears during the pre-installed boot process.
