I have an ASUS Z270I mini-ATX motherboard and am using Windows 10 which is currently installed on a Crucial MX300 525GB M.2 SSD. I just bought another M.2 SSD of the same, however, Windows does not recognize it, even in Disk Management but the motherboard does in the BIOS.
I had one of the SATA ports occupied with a 2TB SSHD when I popped in the second M.2. Thinking that seeing how I'm using one of the SATA ports, it disabled the second M.2 slot on the back of the board. So, naturally, I disconnected the 2TB SSHD but nothing changed. I even restarted my PC and refreshed the drives in Disk Management, and no go. I was under the impression that I could use both the SATA ports and SSD slots without issue on this board, but just to see if I was wrong, that is why I removed the 2TB SSHD.
BIOS recognizes it, so I know it isn't defective, or at least, I don't think so. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
