My 512 GB Silicon Power A55 M.2-2280 SATA Solid State Drive was my only SSD until today.
I bought and inserted a Crucial P3 PLUS CT1000P3PSSD8 in the M2_2 slot in my MSI PRO B550M-VC WIFI Micro ATX AM4 Motherboard
I initialized the new ssd, then used Acronis for Crucial to clone the Silicon Power ssd and make the Crucial my boot drive

Now, I was instructed by the program to then move the Crucial ssd to the m2_1 slot so it's my boot drive
After doing this, however, I seem to not have the 512 gb of my silicon power. I don't know whats up, I updated my drivers-Amd, Bios, motherboard, and im up to date on windows
both ssds prior to the switch were seen as at least being inserted in the MOBO
Now, its as if nothing is inserted in the m2_2 slot, where the Silicon Power 512 GB is

Is this an issue that can be fixed by something software related? I'm afraid that it's dead, but im not sure how to check.

Update, after switching back to their original places, windows accepts the storage and bios reads both, but doesn't show the storage altogether total? only shows 1tb crucial
