Changing Hardrive
I am trying to change the m.2 hard drive over to a sata SSD. No matter what settings I change in the BIOS it says that no bootable device is found. Although in the bios it does recognize it in the sata 0 with all the details of the hard drive. I have about 20 of these boxes and not one will recognize a sata hard drive

Did you remove the NVMe drive? Most systems that support both an M.2 and 2.5" SATA drives require the boot to be M.2 NVMe if both are installed.0

Hello,
did you clone the M.2 to the SATA SSD?
If so, go to BIOS -> General - Boot Sequence
click "Add Boot Option" and select the SATA SSD and name it "SATASSD"Select the "SATASSD" at first boot device. Click "Apply" and reboot.
Pls post result

In BIOS, use Windows Boot Manager if it's one of the options. Uncheck or delete boot options not in use. I had to delete IPV4 and IPV6 (boot from network options) when I had boot problems.
Hopefully BIOS was set to AHCI when you cloned the m.2 drive.
