Solution
Set it to PCIEX16_1 + M2_2.

But this will reduce PCIEx16_1 slot bandwidth. That's where graphics card usually goes.
You may want to use a different M.2 slot instead. Your motherboard has four M.2 slots.
What BIOS version and the processor are you working with? Might also want to mention which slot you've populated with your M.2 drive. DO you have any other SATA based drives populating the SATA ports on the motherboard?
im using a i7-11700k but i dont know what bios version its just the newest i guess the drive is located in the second m.2 port of m.2_2 and i dont have any sata devices connected
