So I bought a new Vulcan SSD, but when trying to hook it up my computer would boot to a screen with some system specs and a message at the bottom saying, "Press ESC to start up boot menu." Nothing happens when pressing ESC or any other button. However, if I remove the new SSD it works perfectly fine. I have removed no other drives in there. Currently there is the initial SSD that has my OS and an HDD which holds my games. When i installed the new Vulcan SSD i did not remove either of these. I checked my boot order without the Vulcan in there since it's the only way i can do anything and it seemed to be fine. The problem arises whenever I hook the Vulcan back up. I cannot even enter BIOS. I'm stuck on the screen.
