Question New SSD causes BSOD ?

[UnlceZip]

ASRock B450 Pro4
AMD Ryzen 5 3600
AMD Radeon RX 580
32GB DDR4 SDRAM 3200MHz
Windows 11

I have a Kingston SA2000M8/250G M.2 NVME SSD in M.2_1 (Windows drive) and a ADATA SX6000PNP 256GB in M.2_2. Both of these work fine. I tried to upgrade the latter using a TeamGroup TM8FP6512G0C101 512GB SSD, but in M.2_2 it genrates BSODs almost as soon as I reach the desktop after booting. If I put this in M.2_1 (making it the Windows boot drive) it works fine - no BSOD.

Any ideas why this might be the case?

Your old secondary drive may have part of boot sector/files on it. Does it boot properly when no secondary/new drive is present ?

Yes, it is fine in that scenario.
