As the title describes, I put the SSD into the M.2 slot and I can not find it anywhere on the system on startup. My bios is fully updated and I am running on Windows 10.

Any help is appreciated, thank you.
 
Solution
BIOS Version 2601 or higher supports NVMe storage.

M.2 SSD contains UEFI driver information within the firmware. By disabling the CSM module Windows will read and utilize the M.2-specific UEFI driver. That is if you did a UEFI installation of Windows.

Those drives are usually used as boot drives however you seem to be using it as a data drive.
