  1. Dell XPS 8900 will not boot from new SSD: "No boot device found".


    Dear forum,

    There seem to be some real experts in this group and I'd be grateful for your advice here.

    I've installed a new 500 GB Kingston SSD and cloned my existing HDD to it. Both drives show in the drive list, and appear to have the same files on them. I was intending to leave the old drive in for storage.

    I had to enable Legacy Boot in the BIOS to set the new SSD to the top of the boot list. However, the machine will not now boot up.

    What do I need to do here?

    With thanks for any advice you may have.

    (I'm using Windows 10 Pro)

    :)

  3. Advice on upgrading HDD to SSD on Dell XPS 8900

    I have a Dell XPS 8900/Windows 10 (20H2) with a 1 TB HD that has the operating system and also a 4 TB HD that I use for storage. I want to replace the 1 TB with a 1 TB SSD. I know I will need to purchase an adaptor to install in a 3.5" bay. I was planning on purchasing a Samsung EVO drive. Do I need to go into Disk Management first before I do anything else or can I just use Macrium Reflect to clone my existing 1 TB drive, swap them out and and the ssd will boot up with no issues? I obviously want the process to be easy and painless as possible. Thanks in advance for ideas/suggestions.
