Vostro 3268, no boot after clone HDD to SSD, BIOS doesn't see a new SSD.

Hi,

I've cloned HDD Seagate Barracuda in Vostro 3268 with latest BIOS firmware to SSD Plextor PX-256M8VC w/o any problems. It's boot fine on another comp's. Clone done with secure boot disabled but both UEFI and Legacy supported option enabled. Clone done with Acronis True Image. The issue that BIOS doesn't recognize a new SSD, it shows Seagate Barracuda everywhere in BIOS and boot option.

Help!

Sure, this Vostro has only one sata power connector by default. I've used USB 3.0 port for clone.

After you cloned the drive did you shut down the system, disconnect the old drive, then restart the system with only the SSD connected?
