I just installed a new NVMe SSD on my PC and went through the process of installing Windows 11 onto it. However, I'm not seeing my TN320 NVMe SSD as a boot option. I'm using an ASUS Prime B550M-A motherboard, along with a Toshiba HDWE 140 hard drive. It seems to only allow me to boot from my old hard drive, not the new SSD. Any suggestions on how to resolve this?

First, double-check if your SSD is properly initialized and formatted in Disk Management. Sometimes, if it hasn't been set up correctly, it won't show up as an option for booting. You can access Disk Management by right-clicking the Start button and selecting it from the list.
Are you using multiple drives with Windows on them? If you have both your old hard drive and the new SSD connected, it might confuse the BIOS on which one to boot from. Try disconnecting the old hard drive temporarily to see if that allows the system to recognize the SSD.
Yes, I do have both drives connected. I'll try disconnecting the old one and see if that changes anything!
