I've been using a budget 20MB SSD for some time now, and I'm considering switching to a Samsung Evo drive. I also have two 2TB Barracuda drives, but only one is currently active. The other one is sitting idle in my bay today. I tried transferring all my files from the SSD using this guide, but when I attempted to boot from NVMe it didn't work. The BIOS kept flashing error messages and refusing to recognize the drive or network connection. It says the drive isn't properly installed or functioning. Right now, I don't see any use for the cheap SSD and plan to discard it. It's slow and small, so I prefer the two HDDs, with the NVMe one just as a backup. Is there any way to fix this issue or should I wipe the PC and install Windows on the NVMe drive? Anyone, really help my discord is Ȓed#6101! I'd love a coffee or something.
