The setting up of the new computer has been not been smooth so far and before I do more harm, I would be happy to get more input. The system has SSD and HDD and I wanted to install Ubuntu 19.04 with the USB installer on the SSD (LVM + LUKS). But it did not recognise the SSD and installed Ubuntu on the HDD. This worked worked fine but I realised it only after the installation that Ubuntu is on the wrong disk. I tried to find some guidance on the internet but did not much but to just install Ubuntu again but this time on the SSD. But the SSD would not recognized by the Ubuntu Installer although the pre-installed Windows would still start normally.
After the start of the USB installer I would see a quick error: Couldn't get size:0x800000000000000e.
The error is probably not related to the SSD:

I followed some tips to make the SSD visible:
- Windows fast startup turned off (https://askubuntu.com/questions/8431...n-unsafe-state)
- Secure boot (UEFI) turned off
- Start "Install Ubuntu" with nomedeset added

But only when I changed the SATA mode from RST(RAID) to AHCI in the UEFI it worked (https://askubuntu.com/questions/1072...-nvme-ssd?rq=1)
The second installation went well, I could choose on which harddisk I wanted to install Ubuntu 19.04 (LVM+LUKS). BUT ...
When I wanted to boot the computer then, it seemed to try to start with the SSD but stopped with a squeaking sound, then it starts the HDD (called ubuntu in the UEFI) which then shows a black screen with GRUB command line.
Following https://www.howtogeek.com/196740/how...-it-wont-boot/ respectively https://www.howtogeek.com/114884/how...ntu-wont-boot/, I ran the Boot repair but it could not help. This was the Paste of diagnostics: http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/tynzDQmQND/
And this is the output after the repair trial: http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/PspwxnBZgT/
Nothing has changed it seemed.
Before I attempt to reinstall and maybe reformat the HDD, I did not find any other guidance yet, I hope to get some input from you before I make things worse. \\
Thanks in advance very much!
