Hi, I have a weird problem and I hope I can find the answer.
I recently built a new build and I have a MSI Z270 M7, which has three M.2 slots. I also bought a Samsung 850 EVO M.2 SSD.
When I first installed the SSD I tried it in the second slot, which in return did not recognized the drive, nor in the bios or during the OS installation.
I swapped it and placed it in the third slot, which recognized the SSD properly.
You might think it's a Mobo defect, but, for a different reason, I had to replace my Mobo, and the new one does the exact same thing.
Is there some kind of explanation here that might come useful? I haven't tried the first slot, but if I wanted to add some more M.2 drives, it could drive me crazy.
The only thing that I can think of is that I have an HDD connected to the SATA port n.4, but I checked the Mobo manual and they shouldn't interfere.
Thanks!
