I replaced the HDD (120 Gb) of my HP 530 notebook with a SSD (240 Gb) brand WD, but the programs (office, etc) got a little slow, stuttered, froze at times and then continued and sometimes they hung themselves; so disable the SATA Native Mode, (after researching the web) in the ROM Base Set up, this improved the operation a bit, and then changed the HDD translation Mode from Bit-shift to LBA-assisted, this was an error , because the system windows 10 no longer started, so I had to reinstall all windows 10, and with this everything is fixed, now everything runs very well. I will appreciate your comments.
 
You should turn Native mode back on. You need it to support command queuing which helps with concurrent IOs and miscellaneous other SSD features.

As for why LBA broke your OS, that's because it changes the logical volume layout, which means the storage addressing gets scrabled and the OS can no longer find its stuff where it expects it to be.
