How can I use my NVME SSD on my R7 as my main boot drive?
Bought a 1TB samsung 960 pro and install in my motherboard, however how can I make this my main boot drive, or my main driver? Please help!

I think so? But all I did was make the Nvme online and transfer files
there. Though, I want it to make it my main boot drive.

You'll need to enter the Bios (F2) and change the boot priority to make the system boot from the new drive, but to make it the main drive (with the OS), you'll need to reinstall the OS on the new drive or clone the original drive into the new one.

I bought the Aurora R7 and performed an NVMe upgrade from the 1tb HDD using the following method. It is by no means the only, correct way-it just worked for me after exhausting the Dell Tech Spprt folks.
