Sorry for my newbiness but from your source it seems that I need to add the --removable flag to the grub install for it to work on this computer, Is that correct?

Ok strange thing when I was trying to copy the files over my filesystem was complety differnt. So different that I could not find grubx64.efi at all.
The file system was as such /boot/EFI/EFI/BOOT/BOOTx64.EFI

Thank you so much, after just adding --removable flag Arch booted up perfectly.
