I have an old m.2 drive that was my boot drive with windows installed on it. It's now empty and windows was installed on another drive (SSD). But somehow the original m.2 is considered the boot drive. I cannot select the SSD in the BIOS as the new boot drive. I want to physically remove the M.2 drive from my PC, but it breaks windows if I remove it. Is there a way to make the SSD the boot drive (without reformatting)? Thank you
