Hello, I bought a Kingston A400 480GB, I have a ASUS PRIME B450M-A Motherboard, I connected my SSD but no luck seeing it in Disk Managment, DISKPART or Device Manager.

Try a different sata port.
If your system has M.2 drive installed, ports SATA5 and SATA6 get disabled.
I have 1 easy question for you. Is your CPU overclocked? One of my machines is an AMD 9590 CPU, extremely overclocked (5GHz) and running at 220 watts. Would not see any SSD drives, regardless of where I plugged them in. This is the only machine I have ever had to underclock to get it to recognize the SSD. I was beginning to wonder if 4.6 GHz would be low enough since I could not change the multiplier on the board. All is well now!
