booting pc with 2 identical drives?

Thread needs solution

hello eveyone
i have recently bought crucial mx100 ssd that came with an activation key for acronis true image hd, i cloned my hdd to my new ssd and everything went fine, i'm now having problems with my ssd freezing my system 1-2 minutes after start-up, i watched the video made by acronis about how to clone your hdd and they mentioned twice that booting your pc with 2 identical drives might make one of them unbootable, is this the case i'm having? my hdd and ssd both have different names and capacities and i still have not formatted my original hdd.

If you have windows on both then yes it is possibly the cause. Disconnect one of the drives and reboot.

i will redo the cloning process in case of file corruption and then will disconnect the old hdd, hope it works.

unfortunately, the problem just occurred after the first boot even after removing the original hdd.
if someone who has the mx100 ssd could help, i would really appreciate it.
