Yep, that's all I needed to do! Glad it was that simply. Tbh I didn't even realize that BBS priorities folder icon was something I could click on...]]> Tue, 22 Jan 2019 02:22:48 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=10722&PID=60150&title=uefi-setup-cant-choose-ssd-as-boot-default#60150 <![CDATA[UEFI setup: can't choose SSD as boot default : I think you have to set the drive...]]> https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=10722&PID=60103&title=uefi-setup-cant-choose-ssd-as-boot-default#60103 Author: Ray62

I think you have to set the drive order in the "Hard Drive BBS Priorities" section to configure your SSD as the AHCI P0 drive.]]> Sat, 19 Jan 2019 20:27:48 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=10722&PID=60103&title=uefi-setup-cant-choose-ssd-as-boot-default#60103 <![CDATA[UEFI setup: can't choose SSD as boot default : I have an ASRock FM2A85X-ITX board...]]> https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=10722&PID=60096&title=uefi-setup-cant-choose-ssd-as-boot-default#60096 Author: jugdish

I have an ASRock FM2A85X-ITX board with two SATA drives attached: a Samsung SSD, and a HGST HDD. I want the Samsung SSD to be the boot default. When I enter UEFI setup, if I go to Storage Configuration, I can see that both of the drives are visible by the system:



However, when I go to the Boot section and try to set the default boot order, there are only 3 options. The HGST drive is listed, but not the Samsung drive:



Why?

Also, if I reboot and hit F11 to enter the Boot Menu, then I can see the SSD listed as a boot option:



Obviously hitting F11 every time I boot up is not ideal. So the question is -- if the system can see this SSD, why am I not able to set it as the boot default in UEFI setup?]]> Sat, 19 Jan 2019 05:26:00 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=10722&PID=60096&title=uefi-setup-cant-choose-ssd-as-boot-default#60096
