Windows 10: My ssd is not being detected by disk part

I have tried chkdsk but the only disk it reads is the usb with the windows installed. i had originaly put it into another computer and tried disk managerment however it was also not detected.

Transfer System disk image to SSD


Here's my suggestion: Connect the SSD to the PC.

1. Download: Macrium Reflect Free and install then run.
   IMPORTANT: click on the 1st icon on the top left to create a Macrium Rescue disk (using USB or DVD)
2. Open Disk Management and make sure the SSD is disk 1.
   From Admin Command, type:
   diskpart
   select disk 1
   clean
   exit
   exit
3. From Macrium, The disk with Windows currently running will have the partitions as shown in your screen shot above. Click on Clone this disk...
   A Windows popup, click on select a disk to clone to...
   Click on the SSD
4. Select the 100MB "System Reserved", drag and drop to the destination (SSD)
5. Select the 60GB "C Drive", drag and drop to the destination(SSD) next to the System Reserved
6. Click Next->Finish
7. Once done, shutdown, disconnect the HD and connect the SSD Only
8. Boot up with the Macrium Rescue disk created in step 1.
9. Once booted, click on "Fix Windows boot problems" and follow the instruction to complete.
10. Remove the Rescue disk and reboot.

 

Disk X has the same disk identifiers as one of my other disks

If you change the main drive ID it may not boot. If the other drive is the source drive you used to clone, I suggest you change the ID on that drive or even better, clean and reinitialize the drive. Open a CMD window as administrator and type: diskpart list disk (it will list all drives. Identify the SSD drive number) select disk n (replace n by the SSD drive number obtained with list disk) clean convert GPT create part primary select part 1 format fs=ntfs quick assign exit (to exit diskpart)

 

Windows cannot be installed to this disk. This computer's hardware may not support booting to this disk. Ensure the disk's controller is enabled in the computer's bios menu.

Hi Matthew,

There are several possible reasons as to why your computer is not detecting an SSD drive. This could be caused by incorrect BIOS settings or device drivers that need to be updated. Since you already tried the suggestion of Andre Da Costa and this allowed
your computer to detect the SSD already, we would like to further clarify your concern by asking the questions below:

• If you were already able to install Windows on the SSD, have you already attempted to change the boot order in the BIOS menu?
• Which version of Windows did you install on the SSD?
• What other troubleshooting steps have you attempted?

We look forward to your response to our queries.
