Hey y'all.

I recently got my hands on the ASUS FX505GT Laptop (Amazon IN link below) and honestly, its a great experience so far. (I play games, but not in a hardcore way; which explains im satisfied with the GTX 1650 it has. Temps although hot, are behaved) But today I noticed something weird (or im just dumb).

This laptop advertises 512GB NVMe SSD but upon entering the bios and checking the NVMe Configuration, it says "No NVMe devices found" and under the SATA confiuration, its set to "Intel RST Premium with intel optane system acceleration". Furthermore, under the device manager, no "NVMe controller" exists (tbh i dont even know if there is a thing like this). HWINFO64 also reports the drive under SATA devices. Am i missing something? is this expected? i haven't performed any benchmarks so i really need help. Thanks!
