I bought this machine, and it has a 1TB spinning HDD in it. So, I installed an m.2 SSD into the available slot to help with boot times and more rapid application launch, and I left the HDD in place.

 

I successfully cloned the OS onto the SSD using Samsung Data Migration. I can see the SSD in task manager. When I run F2 on restart, I can see the SSD under the "Hard Drive" part of the system information as well, just under my current HDD. But, when I go to BIOS to change the boot order, I cannot find a way to boot from the SSD.

 

I'd love to repurpose that slow spinning hard drive for bulk storage while the SSD handles me handle boot volume chores. How do I enable the SSD to boot in BIOS? I would very much appreciate some help with this.
