WIN10 SSD Issue

[bankswe]

SSD issue on Drive letters. I have two disks Dsk 0 and 1 Installed the SSD drive and cloned to SSD drive. Changed bios to boot the ssd. Now I have 3 drives showing --2 are Windows and 1 called System which has only 1 folder labeled "EFI" So I have an A, C and E hdds shown but of course I really only have two hdd drives. D is The DVD. How to get this system to show the correct drives is the question?

Among other possible things the boot manager and the recovery console live in the System Reserved volume. Make them homeless and your PC won't boot.

after the cloning on the first boot with the ssd did you remove hdd from system to have it detect ssd as boot drive .

I only removed the SATA cable and after reboot left the sata cables swapped.

I am sure that my solution was not the best but I unplugged the hdd then rebooted and reconnected the hdd and formatted the E drive which was 500MB, also remove the drive ltr then formatted the F drive. Now it will boot from C, the SSD. Of course, I lose the E area but it works I guess.

It was the best imo. It got the job done.
