Add HDD, only boots to HDD - no options for selecting SSD. I then removed both HDD and SSD and booted into BIOS to let it detect nothing and maybe reset something. This worked fine, windows booted off the SSD with no issue (only in legacy mode, but still). Ok, well lets try removing the HDD, now that SSD has boot files. It doesn't say what notebook hard drive refers to, but selecting it boots with the HDD. Hitting f9 takes me to select boot drive, but all that appears are 'notebook hard drive' and "boot from EFI file". Now that the same version of the OS is on both drives, I went to boot up windows and choose a boot drive. I duplicated the OS onto the SSD with non issue. I then reinstalled the SSD, which was showed up as available storage just fine. I removed the SSD, put my HDD back in and ran a fresh install of windows.
But I can't tell if it is still trying to load from the non-existent HDD/port 0. I though perhaps with a single drive installed, it would default to that drive.
I saw in another post somewhere that the OS boot manager is supposed to have a dropdown/submenu that lists the bootable drives (where my ssd should be), but there is no dropdown marker and nothing happened when I select it.
