I want to upgrade my SSD to a WD Blue SN550 1TB NVMe M.2 2280. I had the remove the anchor hex bolt to the furthest anchor hole on the motherboard to allow for the new SSD to be anchored to the board. I have created a USB clean copy of Windows 10. For some reason when I install windows and the system restarts the SSD is not visible in my system BIOS, nor does it show to have a bootable OS. I am not sure what is going on. Command Prompt and windows installer both show the drive as disk 0. How can I fix this to be able to use the new drive? I do not want to clone the SSD. My current system provided SSD works fine.
