Hello,
So my new SSD stopped showing in bios(it shows only under legacy now) whereas it used to i also can not clone windows to it there is an error saying that boot and system drive are not on the same disk. All of this happened after i wiped my SSD using mini tool partition, when i did so my laptop couldn't boot as well from the HDD nor the SSD so i installed windows again on the HD Drive but still cant access the SSD and all of the above happened.
What is the problem? And what should I do? I want to either install windows on SSD or Clone my existing windows to it.
Thanks.
Note: the SSD shows in under my computer and it's empty.
I have windows 10 enterprise.

That could happen if you install Windows and there are two or more disk available during installation.
Windows will create boot partitions on two or more disk if available.
The issue arrives when you try to remove or change one of the disks, in that case Windows will no longer boot.
Since Windows have written boot partitions or files needed to boot.
I suggest connect only the disk you're installing Windows and after you finish with the Windows installation then you could connect any other disk you may have.

Could you post your system model or components.
