I have recently got my hands on an m.2 drive. I installed windows on it but even with a known empty HDD I cant boot from the M.2 it will try to boot from the HDD but if the HDD is not installed it will work fine I tried to find ways to change it but I cant find a way to fix it.

Please REMOVE the old HDD and run on M.2 SSD for few days (to make sure it works). After that, format the old HDD and put it back.

 

Regards.
