    Hi. I bought a new SSD (Samsung 850 evo, 250gb) a week ago and i've been trying to get it to work. My goal is to install Windows on it, and maybe the game i play the most, and use my 1tb HDD as the main storage drive. At first I had problems where Windows wouldn't install on it, because it was...
