I just got a XFX Swift AMD Radeon RX 9070XT RNDA 4 16GB 256-Bit GDDR6 PCI-Express 5.0 RDNA 4 White Graphics Card RX-97TSWF3B9 and

Silicon Power ACE A58 SLC Cache Performance Boost 2.5" 4TB SATA III 3D NAND Internal SSD (SU004TBSS3A58A25SN)​


I dual boot, but the SATA SSD was my Windows Drive. I just replaced a 1TB SATA SSD with this new 4TB SATA SSD. I can pull out the drive and put back in the smaller 1TB SATA SSD which already has Windows 11 installed on it, but I am hoping to get Windows installed on the new drive. The new drive appears to be working thou. I am trying to do a fresh install of Windows 11 from USB. I made a fresh installer from the Media Creation Tool and Booted into that. The Installer detects the drive, I choose that drive, and it appears to install on it. When it goes to reboot the USB drive loads again and it wants to install windows again. I power off my pc, take out the USB and boot choosing Windows boot drive from UEFI. I get the following error. I have tried making a new USB. Could it be the new Radeon 9070XT? I'm not finding any reports of this elsewhere... or is it the new 4TB SATA SSD.

When I choose in UEFI to boot from Fedora, it boots up and the 9070XT works perfectly.. so I don't think I have a bad video card.
 
Windows Build/Version
24H2 I believe. Just got Media Creation Tool from Microsoft Website

Can you clone your old drive to the new one, then extend the partition?

I assumed this was a bad SSD. I went back to my 1 TB SSD but did not try to reinstall Windows. I did get an odd menu to pick which Windows 11 to load... but Windows is working with the 9070XT... Haven't watched your video yet. But new SSD was hooked up fully to SATA cables and power cable. Was getting partitioned and some information wrote to drive, but would not boot.
