Solution Petrossa Oct 3, 2019 You don't mention which CPU you are running on that board. It matters, because if you are running Ryzen (1st gen)/Athlon there is no support for running that bottom m.2 slot. (See page 1-14 in the mobo manual for more details - https://dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/.../E14929_ROG_STRIX_B450-E_GAMING_UM_V2_WEB.pdf )

T taeioum Honorable Jan 27, 2019 882 157 11,790 Oct 3, 2019 #2 Which SSD did you buy? I'm asking because it could be that you've purchased a PCI-E SSD, while your motherboard may only support SATA. Already checked. Both M.2 ports on your motherboard support PCI-E SSDs. Only the second slot supports SATA SSDs. Upvote 0 Downvote
