Hi, I woke up and my computer has the error "Reboot and Select proper Boot device". It worked fine last night. When I first went into the BIOS, my optical drive and HDD was in the boot priority, but my SSD was not. After plugging the SSD, HDD, and Optical drive into different sata ports I realised that a different storage was popping up in the Boot priority. Either the Optical drive and SSD would appear, or the Optical drive and HDD would appear. I have plugged each of them in by themselves and they all appear in the boot priority. So is there a way I can get them all to appear at one time?
Either SSD or HDD does not appear in Boot priority when all are connected

Could it be possible that 3rd SATA port you are using is bad which is why it wont show? Many mobos have more then 3 SATA ports. Have you tried another port?

Depends on how you tested it. Did you use the original SATA cable connected to the device or the same SATA cable when testing all 3 devices?

It could be but it's still kinda weird that they show up separately.
You could try to do a BIOS update and/or factory reset BIOS settings. Then plugging everything back in and see if it shows.
Just make sure you document your current BIOS setup. Including what hard drive type you are using (AHCI, SATA or Raid?) etc... before you factory reset it.

do you have a os on the ssd and hdd in the same time also what settings you have in uefi and does the ssd in on the first sata port on the board and that you have all the driver install for these sata port since on some board if use use a sata set up ths will disable some others.
