Hi,

Recently I bought a Second Hdd caddy case for my laptop. I followed everything for installation of caddy but when I installed it inside my laptop and tried to boot it didn't proceed and got stuck on acer logo. So I took out the case and tried again and it worked fine, I thought my caddy was damaged but when I inserted it after the windows was booted it worked fine and was showing my hdd but the only problem I'm getting is that it doesn't boot when it's inside for working it I have to take that out.

I tried changing priority to my main SSD on top. Turned off secure boot and also fast boot option. But none of them worked.

I will be thankful to you if you can help me out with it.
