[SOLVED] Reinstalled windows on SSD

[radikgoldman]

I reinstalled windows 10 on my new ssd, I made sure to unplug the hdd when I did. However, after I was done I realised that I didn't change the BIOS setting to AHCI, it was on Raid On. After switching to AHCI to reinstall windows again. The computer wont even start but try to restart, so I have to switch back to Raid on.
My question is, whether the windows is still running from the ssd, it appears faster but I am unsure. I don't want to format my hdd in case windows still boots from it and not ssd.
Also, Is there a way for me to switch to AHCI? I tried changing HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\storahci\StartOverride
the 3 to 0 and rebooting, but nothing.

Click the Start Button and select Run as administrator
Type this command and press ENTER: bcdedit /set {current} safeboot minimal (ALT: bcdedit /set safeboot minimal)
Restart the computer and enter BIOS Setup
Change the SATA Operation mode to AHCI from either IDE or RAID
Save changes and exit Setup and Windows will automatically boot to Safe Mode.
Right-click the Windows Start Menu once more. Choose Command Prompt (Admin).
Type this command and press ENTER: bcdedit /deletevalue {current} safeboot (ALT: bcdedit /deletevalue safeboot)
Reboot once more and Windows will automatically start with AHCI drivers enabled.
