Brian, Boot settings are in BIOS, you can try Esc, or F2 to enter boot
order and /or BIOS settings. My guess is that external hdd is first in boot
order, then the internal hdd. CDROM may also be in the list.
If you have a good and bootable clone, why not install it into the laptop?
Or practice the upgrade to Ubuntu 22.04 on the present hdd, if successful,
change to 1TB drive and do it again. That should give you the larger and
upgraded install you want.
Thank you, Ted

    <p>Hello All</p>
    <p>As a prelude, I am reaching capacity on my internal 256GB SSD and
      so am wanting to utilize the 1TB SSD I have. I&#39;m running Ubuntu
      Mint on an ASUS 15&quot; laptop, version 20.04. <br>
    </p>
    <p>I successfully cloned my 256GB SSD to a 1TB SSD. I used the
      entire space as one partition. When I check with GParted I see
      that is actually the fact. However when I boot the laptop with the
      1TB SSD as a USB drive the machine boots from that drive
      automatically.=C2=A0 When I check the BIOS on booting I only see the
      1TB SSD as a Boot option if it&#39;s connected as a USB drive, not th=
e
      still installed 256GB SSD.=C2=A0 If I unplug the 1TB drive the laptop
      boots from the internal drive. In the BIOS I can see in each
      instance the specific drive (the 1TB USB drive or the internal
      256GB drive) as the only option to boot as opposed to seeing the
      external 1TB drive and the internal drive and being able to
      choose.=C2=A0 Why the machine boots automatically from the plugged in
      1TB USB drive is an unknown to me. At least the drive is cloned
      and will boot. Before I replace the internal drive I&#39;d like to
      have that full 1TB available. If I can make that happen then I can
      upgrade the distro and replace the internal drive with it. Any
      ideas on how to get those almost 750GB on the 1TB drive to be
      accessible?=C2=A0</p>
