HP Recommended

HP say "The primary Serial ATA (SATA) hard drive must be connected to the dark blue primary SATA connector on the system board labeled SATA0. If you are adding a second hard drive, connect it to the light blue connector (8200 Elite models) or the white connector (6200 Pro models) on the system board labeled SATA1." here: https://support.hp.com/gb-en/document/c02742852#AbT5.

Worked for me. I simply changed the newly added SDD to the dark blue SATA connector and the computer automatically booted from the SDD.
