I would call them, and without mentioning Linux, ask them if the plugged in SSD will show up in the BIOS screens and where would that be. I don't have a laptop such as yours but if the drive is just like any drive I would expect it to show up on the screen where you select the boot order. On my desktop the HD's and Optical Drive are all on SATA so they all show up in the boot order screen. -- In reality, some people should stick to running Windows and others should stay away from computers altogether. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
