welcome to the Linus Tech tips forums!

 

you'll have to go to your computer management tools to make it OS ready.

control panel->administrative tools->computer management->storage->disk management

the new drive should show up there.

right click the drive and start the process.

my error, the OS cannot be seen after POST.

then it sounds like the bootloader for the OS is corrupt or damaged.

when you installed the OS the first time with your USB, you can repair the OS or re-install OS.

What mother board do you have? I had issues with my EVGA Z370 FTW not seeing my 850 EVO as a bot drive unless I set the boot mode option to "Legacy" and not UEFI which did fix the issue. Dig around your BIOS and see what you can find in terms of boot mode options. I realize your post says the bios sees it but you never know
