Thank you! Very helpful. First of all i'll wipe my SSD and re-instert HDD in the SATA i'm now using. Then i'll consider buying another SSD and start again. Thank you again!

That seems to be the best choice. If I can further ask you: if i wanted to buy another SSD or just go back to HDD for now, how could I format my SSD to wipe my data, if there's windows installed and my other interface is not working? EDIT: Before buying another drive.

Yes, it is. MX500 is 250GB.

I could try switching my SSD with HDD and viceversa, installing Windows on the HDD and trying the ssd in the caddy. I now remember to add: I tried running CrystaldiskInfo and it says my HDD is good, having 0 errors in the various tests.

Is there a way to check if my SATA interface is faulty?

Yes, it does. I am now using it, and it loads pretty fast compared to my old configuration, as I would expect.

(Sorry for the bad english, not my first language). I bought a new Crucial MX500 SSD and I replaced my TOSHIBA MQ01ABD100 with it. I then put the HDD in the optic reader slot, in a caddy. Premise: before this, my DVD reader didn't work. I installed the OS (Windows 10 64b) on the SSD via USB...
