Q: Installing Windows on a 2015 PCI SSD on a Late 2013 15' MacBook Pro

Hello everyone recently I have replaced my SSD with a new 1TB one whose model is "APPLE SSD SM1024G". This one seems to be used for Early/Mid 2015 MBP. But I have problems installing Windows 10.

 

 

With Boot Camp(EFI) or manually EFI boot installation, I will get an error which says "Windows could not update the computer's boot configuration" during the final step.

 

 

With Disk Utility and BIOS installation, "we won't find any partition" error will appear after I choose the partition.

 

 

I personally prefer install by EFI. This error once occurred when I used Mavericks and SSD unchanged. So I wonder if there are any ways to fix it. Maybe I need to load a new driver during installation, or not?

 

 

BTW my Mac is 15' MacBook Pro with Nvidia Graphics Late 2013.

 

 

Thanks~
