i have no option in bios where i can switch from hdd to sdd and only ahci option exists there...

but when i was looking in biossettings with scewin i find many of this:

Setup Question = SATA Device Type
Token =76F // Do NOT change this line
Offset =BB8
Width =01
BIOS Default =[00]Hard Disk Drive
Options =*[00]Hard Disk Drive // Move "*" to the desired Option
[01]Solid State Drive


the * is set everywhere to HDD by default...


but im running windows 10 on M.2 SSD...




is that normal ? should it be not set to Solide State Drive in bios automatic and detect when install and run an SDD in pc ?


same happens on another motherboard too...i install and run sdd but scewin shows bios default HDD and the * is set to Hard Disk Drive.

Moved to correct forum section.

Do you mean you want to change the boot priority? There should be an option for that. You're looking the wrong place.

I have a problem with my BIOS settings. I want to change the SATA device type from HDD to SSD, but I don’t see any option for that. I only have AHCI mode enabled. Is there a way to switch from HDD to SSD without reinstalling Windows?
