When installing windows 10 it canβt find my new Samsung 970 evo plus. Iβm try to upgrade my Samsung 970 evo 250gb m.2 drive to the new 500gb Samsung 970 evo plus
I though there are special instructions I'm not aware of for using an SSD as the not device, but going though most of the video all there is was the regular instructions on using multiple drives in a system, which I already know.
I guess the silver lining is there is not new and I do it all the right way π€

Hi. I installed SSD M2. I would like to disconnect my internal HDD drive and connect it only when I need to access its memory. However, my Acer Aspire F5 tells me that there's no bootable device even after changing boot priority (Legacy option) to SSD (F2) and using Boot Manager (F12) to Enter via the SSD. No video on the Internet solved this situation. How can I fix that? BIOS version 1.27, InsideH20 Setup Utility Rev. 5.0. I just don't want to run HDD every time I open computer, let's have it disconnected. Any ideas?βοΈ

This video was very useful when I configured my SSD + HHD set up last year. I now need to replace my PC and given the issues about Win10 licences possibly not being transferred to new SSD I wonder what this issues are with a new SSD and different version of Win 10 and the link with all the programs on the HDD.
Hello, why did you put a ring in your ears?
Thank you, I think this is exactly what I was looking for.
Do you recommend putting the WIndows temp drive on disk? as opposed to SSD? Just curious. cause SSD is limited to a lot fewer writes.
Me in 2020 watching this
Your guides are the easiest to follow thanks
Linus, did you just touch the hidden into button?
2020 dec… And I still haven't used a ssd. Still on Hdds.
