-SSD appear on the Windows 10 format screen.
-SSD appear on the BIOS ATA Port Information.

Because you have NOT installed windows yet it will NOT show up.

Set your BIOS to uEFI boot ONLY.

Boot off the USB windows 10

it should see the SSD and install. It will install windows as a uEFI device then and will be see as a bootable device.

Make sure you unplug ALL drives besides the SSD when you install.
