Cloned SS 970 EVO Plus M.2 SSD won’t boot after being swapped into a MS Surface Studio Gen 1
Aloha - I used Acronis True Image to clone a relatively newly installed 2TB WD Blue 3D SATA that is my boot drive. The target drive is a Samsung 970 EVO Plus NVMe M.2 2TB drive. Acronis indicated that the clone had completed successfully. I then swapped the 2 drives, but am getting error msg. 0xc000000e. I have gotten to the command prompt using a Win 10 recovery USB drive and checked to ensure that the 2 drives in the MS SS are both online. That didn’t work....so then attempt to let Win 10 repair itself....that took awhile, but also didn’t work....so, now I’m at a loss. Also, I have the “old” WD Blue M.2 in a 3.0 USB case and it isn’t being recognized on my other computer (MS Surface Book 2). Both the original and the target drives were originally formatted using GPT and I used the Automatic mode in Acronis True Image 2019. Any assistance you can lend would be very much appreciated. I’d rather not have to repeat what I did last time (I.e., when I installed the WD M.2 I had to rebuild windows and then load all of my programs from scratch....a very time-consuming process to say the least). Mahalo!

Probably need some more info. However, in my experience, surface pros come bitlocker encrypted and have secure boot enabled by default. And if bitlocker is not actually encrypted, it may be flagging the disk is locked anyway.
First, turn off secure boot in the bios. Then make sure bitlocker is fully disabled and not flagged as locked on the drive while booted back into it in the original system location.
Then, when you shutdown, do a full shutdown (cmd prompt and shutdown /f /p)
Then boot the rescue media and make sure it is booted in UEFI mode and not Legacy!! Then attempt the clone again.
