I cloned my hdd into the Samsung 860 evo SSD with Samsung Data Migration software. When I restart the computer and go into the BIOS, the 4 boot options won't have my SSD on it unless I go into "Hard Drive BBS Priorities" and change the SSD to the boot #1 option on my Gigabyte MOBO. Also when I go into "file explorer" in windows 10, it does not detect the SSD. I did not have this problem with my Crucial SSD. My pc automatically booted from the Crucial SSD once I restarted. I'm not sure what I am doing wrong here. I'm confused. Help please




Update. I went into disk management and I saw that the SSD which is now the F: drive was "offline". So I changed it to "online". Now in the BIOS it recognizes the SSD without me going into "Hard Drive BBS Priorities". I set the SSD to "boot option 1" but it still won't load up and the pc gives me an error and tells me to boot from proper drive.
