I have 2 M2 SSDs, a 1TB and a 256GB. Windows 10 used to be on the smaller one, but I've completely reinstalled windows, erasing both SSDs, and making the 1TB the main one. The problem is that if I go to BIOS Boot Priority, my 1TB ssd won't show up, but the 256GB one does, although it is currently empty. What is going on here? IMG1 IMG2

Yes, I had both of them connected so I could wipe and format them both from the Windows 10 installation panel Disk Manager
And yes, as expected.
The first partition on Disk 1 is the boot partition.

Are you open to a fresh OS install (again)?

If so, redo it on the 1TB, with ONLY that drive physically connected.
