I have installed windows server 2022 onto my HP Z620. The OS was installed on a 500gb drive which was the only drive installed at the time. The OS install was successful.
I then installed a 8tb drive and the machine will hang on the bios splash screen where is says press ESC to enter system config.
I have tested the drive in another computer and it is configured as GPT. I see others have had similar problems and a user named DGroves has posted a solution regarding BIOS options. I am unable to locate the post where he has these options listed

We only support consumer versions of Windows from here, not Server versions.
For Server support, you have to contact HP Enterprise -- a separate company with which we have no affiliation.

I do not think the issue is the operating system but rather the bios settings of the Z620. I was only hoping that someone could perhaps tell me what the settings might be to enable the computer to boot with the 8tb drive installed
