    I have 4 drives sdd boot, 2nd ssd and two HDD in my pc and they have been working fine until a few hours ago when i got a blue screen and i noticed that one of the HDD was not showing up anywhere. I checked disk management and it doesnt show it but when i go to device manager i can see the non functioning drives name but its actually my ssd and it also shows the same in task manager. My second SSD is a crucialMX and i can still access it and everything but its name shows up as "WDC WD" as if it were my western digital HDD. I ran benchmark tests with HDtune and it does infact show activity on

    HDD to SSD

    I don't understand why you changed the boot order in your BIOS.

    When you image or clone an HDD, and restore the image or clone to an SSD, you've got an identical copy of your computer on a different hard drive. Nothing has changed, really. So the next step is to remove the HDD from your computer and replace it with the
    SSD, then carry on as normal.
