SSD not showing in boot priority.

I upgraded my ssd and it wouldn't let me auto boot from it.  This i didn't have a problem with i just had to use F8 to open boot manager.  Today my drive is showing as a storage drive but not in the boot section.  I tried unplugging all the other drives and using different cable for my ssd. None of that worked so I tried to repair the drive using install media no problem detected.  Finally I tried to reinstall windows on my drive and it isn't formated correctly for me install, and I don't want to loose all of my files again.  Any help on how I can fix my drive without loosing my file preferably is greatly appreciated? Thank you.

Yo 

Have you try to install win on a different drive and just boot to that, and then you in win you can use the "bad" drive like a normal one, and then get all the data of it?? And if you can get all the imported data of it, then you can format it and run a health check on the sdd. And try to use HWiNFO64 and DiskCheckup can give you idea, on is health.
