ssd SSD Won't install windows

[AlphonseK]

I have a fairly old Lenovo "gaming" laptop ( Lenovo Y510p )

It has two spaces for storage,

1 standard 2.5" bay for a hdd (Currently https://www.amazon.com/Black-750GB-Performance-Mobile-Drive/dp/B00DSUTX3O) and

1 m.2 bay for the boot ssd. (https://mydigitalssd.com/sata-m2-ngff-ssd.php#42mm-sbe-m2-ngff)

However, when I attempt to install windows 10 via the windows media creation tool provided by Microsoft it always fails one way or another.

 

I'll boot from my flash drive, go through all the steps to install windows, I can plainly see the ssd and properly format and create partitions on it and everything.

(It should be said that when I gave up and installed on the hdd, I could save files and install programs on the ssd so as far as I know, it works perfectly fine.)

When the program finishes installing it says success and restarts, but boots back to the flash drive as if nothing happened. if I remove the flash drive it says no bootable media.

 

I can't fix a problem the computer doesn't even know it has.......

Have you tried changing the boot priority in the BIOS?

Yes, it is the primary boot option. I've also tried to boot directly through boot manager, even when it is the only drive installed, still nothing.
