I just bought a ssd for my setup but the bios just refused to detect it. I can still use the ssd just fine, setting up windows and stuff, but since the bios won't detect it, I can't boost windows from it. I'm using the TUF b360m-plus gaming mobo, and yes my bios ís updated, does anyone know how to fix this problem :(

Bios needs to be in uefi mode, CSM typically needs to be off but this varies by motherboard.
Windows typically needs to be installed fresh to the drive so that the boot partition gets created and that us when the bios copies the driver and stores it so it can boot from the drive.
