    Sure. Did yours come with the SSD installed or are you going to be adding it?

    No, I didn't come with SSD installed, but I later added a Nvme SSD. However, there is no option showing in boot menu so how should I boot from SD card?
    I'm waiting for your answer

    You can't boot from an SD card. I misread your title, though you were asking about booting from an SSD.

    Better to boot from USB.

    I got your point but as there is an SD card slot where my SD card adapter fits entirely inside it. So that Once I do chainloading an OS there or install live persistence OS there, then I don't want to remove my SD card anymore that's the main reason I'm not using USB.

    Is there any possible way to boot from SD card?
