Hi!
I bought new laptop with ssd in it and i was hoping i can use my old laptop (which broke down) ssd here.
But when im trying to boot old ssd, im getting blue screen with "Inaccessible Boot Device".
Both ssd's have win 11 installed. New ssd running normally, and i can access to old ssd also from my computer.
But old ssd is larger and i was hoping i can use that one as primary.

Any help is appreciated!

    Hello

    Maybe your old laptop as MBR configuration and your new laptop has UEFI. You need to reinstall your windows on your new laptop.
