Check the motherboard’s documentation to ensure you’re connecting the SSD in a slot that remains active when other PCIe devices are installed like a GPU. Some motherboards split the PCIe lanes across ports and deactivate them in a specific order when utilized.
Which of the 4 M.2 slots is the SSD plugged into
Looking it up on the manual, the only time that your SSD shouldn't be showing up is if you're using SATA ports 2 and 3 while your M.2 NVMe SSD is in slot labelled
M2M_SB (the bottom one in the above graph)
Does the drive appear in the BIOS?Thanks guys, i solved it yesterday by disabling safe boot + VDM + CSM
