Please keep it to 1 thread
Hello all! I have been doing tons of research on this issue, but I cant figure it out. I need some help.
I have a Lenovo Legion Y530, and today I just installed a new 1TB NVMe SSD into it (it did not have an SSD prior to this). There is also an HDD that was already installed that came with the computer (it is also 1TB). The HDD is connected to a sata port, the SDD is not (because it's an NVMe). Right after installing my SSD, my BIOS and computer was able to recognize it!
Next, I downloaded Macrium Reflect to clone my HDD to my SDD (both are GPT), and that went well (especially since they are the same size, I had no problems). I then went into my BIOS and set my SSD as the first option in the boot tab over my HDD, but whenever I boot, it still boots my HDD (not sure why). Here are some screenshots below showing some of the process. Note: I am booting up in UEFI mode, both drives are GPT, but I cant get my SSD to boot. PLEASE NOTE THAT I ALSO CLONED ALL 4 PARTITIONS TO THE SSD. Everything from the HDD was cloned to my SDD. I just want to boot with my SSD

Someone please help me. I have no idea what to do. I just want to be able to boot from my new SSD. Any suggestions? Thanks.
