I wiped my Samsung evo 850 ssd using Samsung Magician and USB reboot drive. After successfully wiping the ssd, my pc does not reboot and always goes to the bios when I turn it on. Why doesn't the ssd boot to windows 10?

Cheap because it not genuine.
If you already have window 10, just download the iso from MS, and burn to dvd or a new flash drive

So you erased everything on the drive, ok...

"After successfully wiping the ssd, my pc does not reboot and always goes to the bios when I turn it on."
So you erased windows and can't understand why it won't boot into Windows?

Seems like either I'm missing something or you just didn't understand that wiping a device erases everything including windows.
If you did wipe it and you don't have a different boot drive then you'll need to boot from a Windows DVD or USB to re-install Windows 10.

yeah I thought the ssd would reboot automatically and ask me to instal windows 10.
I have windows 10 on my hard drive.
How can I install windows 10 on the SSD - I don't have a disk or flask drive copy around.
Can I do it online somehow?
Thanks...
