Can't get cloned SSD drive to boot
I am trying to speed up one of my churchs Inspiron 560s. I cloned the Inspirons HHD to a new SanDisk Extreme Pro 960GB SSD that I bought thru Dell. When I installed it in the Inspiron (used the same cable connectors as the original HDD) and try to boot I get 'no bootable drive'. I rebooted, hit F2 and checked and the new SSD is listed as the boot device. I can put the SSD in a USB 3.0 case, connect it and read it just fine. I used the EaseUS TODO software... Any ideas? Thanks

Hi JohnFFarley,
Somehow the boot partition is not getting cloned properly. I would check the Sandisk support site to see if they provide cloning software.
It would be ideal to perform a clean installation of the OS, to be honest.
