Hi everyone,
I'm a noob when it comes to PC stuff. I've built a couple PC's and I know some basic troubleshooting knowledge but that's about it. Right now, I'm trying to upgrade my girlfriends' ~500GB SSD to a 2TB SSD. Her motherboard only has one M.2 slot though so I bought a USB to M.2 adapter and I'm using that to clone the old drive to the new one.
I've done this before a few years ago for myself and don't remember having any issues. This time however, after completing the clone in Macrium Reflect (I also tried Disk Genius), I can't simply swap the old SSD for the new one because the new one won't boot! In fact I can't even get into the bios when I put the new SSD into the motherboard slot! Please help me I have no idea how to make this new drive bootable. Thank you in advance View: https://imgur.com/a/9SiKCPB
