I got an Acer Aspire E15 E5-575G-5743 laptop. It has 1TB plattered disk and 96GB Kingston m.2 SATA SSD. It came with Windows 10, whcih are installed on the SSD. The BIOS was set to boot in Legacy mode (no EFI partitions on the SSD).
I removed both those disks and installed Adata SX6000 512GB M.2 PCIe NVMe disk. I fired up Ubuntu installation, and install went fine. Grub installed itself without errors. However, when I reboot the laptop I get the 'no bootable device found' error message.
When I boot from the USB or Network (I boot a systemrescueCD) i can see that all the partitions are there, and that grub is properly installed, it's just somehow BIOS won't boot from it.
Am I doing something wrong?

>>>When I boot from the USB or Network (I boot a systemrescueCD) i can see that all the partitions are there>>>What are ALL the partitions that you see on the ADATA card and how are they described? A screenshot would help. Jack E/NJ

I even tried switching bios to UEFI, the installing Ubuntu - install again went fine, but I was not able to boot.0 -
BIOS won't boot from a GPT-partitioned disk. And UEFI bootstrapper also won't boot from a GPT partitioned disk without an EFI partition. If you want to use BIOS, you must install Linux on an MBR partitioned disk. Jack E/NJ

So, this is the image of the old SSD (the one that was on SATA disk) is this:
# fdisk -l sdb.img
Disk sdb.img: 89.4 GiB, 96029466624 bytes, 187557552 sectors
Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
Disklabel type: dos
Disk identifier: 0x250c56d6
Device Boot Start End Sectors Size Id Type
sdb.img1 * 2048 1026047 1024000 500M 7 HPFS/NTFS/exFAT
sdb.img2 1026048 186592322 185566275 88.5G 7 HPFS/NTFS/exFAT
sdb.img3 186593280 187551743 958464 468M 27 Hidden NTFS WinRE
This is the image file I created. I put that image back on the NVMe disk, so, it is MSDOS partition, no GPT. For UEFI, when I tried, I'm not sure, but I know that Ubuntu installer automatically creates GPT partition table with EFI partition if it detects UEFI.
I will know more tomorrow.
I also have no idea about SATA mode, but I'm almost sure that one is not available in BIOS for configuration.

My laptop model is Aspire E 15, E5-575G-70DH, i7-6500U.Can it support M2 SSD NVME WD black 250 GB 3Gen PCIE in my laptop?

It will operate at SATA3 speeds, not nvme speeds, if it fits slot. Safer to buy m.2 SATA3 card. Jack E/NJ

@JackE The e5-575g models that have a seventh generation processor support nvme, see: https://community.acer.com/en/discussion/493903/nvme-boot-ssd-in-e5-575g-55kk-it-is-possibleYou a sixth generation processor will not support NVVME as well?Oi!

Thanks egydiocoelhoIf that's true then it's very important to confirm that the m.2 slot has only one key. If slot has two keys, the nvme won't fit. Jack E/NJ
