You are in emergency mode mode. After logging in, type “journalctl -xb" to view
system logs, "systemctl reboot" to reboot, “systemctl default" or "exit"
to boot into default mode.
Give root password for maintenance

I installed an m.2 SATA SSD into the device in addition to the old SATA SSD. However, it wouldn't boot properly. I decided to take it out, and now it won't boot using the existing SSD either. Does anyone know what could be the issue? So far, I've tried the following:
- Checking boot media order in BIOS
- Resetting BIOS
- Ensuring fstab used UUID's (it already did)
- Updating initramfs
I'm using Debian 6.1.38-2 (2023-07-27).
EDIT: Dran's suggestion to remove the /drive entry from fstab resolved the issue.
The output of journalctl might be helpful for troubleshooting.
Also a cat of /etc/fstab
Initial guesses from what I can see: Do you have some sort of drive encryption on and does that encryption rely on your tpm?
Is that disk being enumerated properly? What does lsblk say? Do you see the partition/filesystem at all?

These errors seemed important. If there is anything specific to look for, let me know.

I don't use disk encryption as far as I'm aware

It looks normal to me.
/drive is not a standard mount in a Debian install. Presumably that's something you did.
There's also no unaccounted for partitions on /sda
If you comment that like out for the /drive mount, it should boot. I'd say better than 50/50 the rest of that is red herrings that have been there since you installed
