Bought a Gigabyte barebones system and started setting it up today. Put windows 10 onto a USB and installed it onto the SSD.
I set the bios to boot first to the SSD (windows boot manager) but it will not boot up. It goes straight into UEFI.
A few other bits I've noticed that are rather strange, if I set the sata mode selection to AHCI, it can't detect the SSD. It will only detect it using Intel RST. Also in the bios,the sata and rst configuration , the sata ata port 0 is always empty despite on the RST screen showing that it is there.
Spec:
PC: Gigabyte Kaby Lake i3 BRIX S Barebone Mini PC Kit with 2.5" SATA Bay GB-BKI3HA-7100
RAM:Corsair Memory 8GB (1x8GB) DDR4 SODIMM 2133MHz
SSD: Samsung 750 EVO 120 GB 2.5 inch Solid State Drive
Update: Just tried using a hdd from an old laptop and the bios detects it immediately. Does this mean that my SSD is faulty?
Will move this to the storage forum.
