Hello
I've installed a new Sandisk ultra 3d SATA3(2Tb capacity) SSD recently, and can't make boot on directly on that. The laptop tries to go on already installed NVME first when boot-up and meantime I couldn't find the 2TB SATA3 SSD anywhere even on windows device manager or disk manager as well until rebooting the system completely.
The SSD works perfectly with another machine such as my own desktop and the Asus one.
The model I have:
Any suggestions are welcome.
Many thanks

I don't know why you want to use slower drive to boot. Anyway, please
- Disable Optane (your machine has https://www.intel.com.au/content/www/au/en/products/memory-storage/optane-memory/optane-memory-h10-s...).
- Remove 512 GB Intel® SSD
- System will boot from 2.5" SATA drive.
Regards.
