I am trying to improve/expand the storage for my brand new Acer Swift 3 SF313-53-78UG Laptop.
(1) After disabling secure boot, open the laptop, took out the original SK Hynix 512Gb HFM512GDJTNI-82A0A drive and installed the WD Black SN750 1Tb WDS100T3XOC-00SJG0.
(2) Power up, enter BIOS (v.1.08); on the "Information" tab, under "HDD model name", the new drive is listed there:
{Thread was edited to add model name to the title}
(3) on the "Boot" tab, under "Boot priority order", the new drive does not show up there (just the USB flash drive with Windows 10 installer):
(4) Proceed with boot from USB flash drive and it will not go much further because neither Windows will list there the new WD drive to be installed into...
I researched before buying a new drive and all I could figure out is that there are other users with 1Tb NVMe drives on this same machine, e.g.:
I couldn't figure out why the new drive does not show up on the list of bootable units and I would very much like to ask for any help that could point me in the right direction.
