[SOLVED] M.2 not showing in Disk Management

[pastnight]

I can't get my 2nd M.2 to show up in disk management, it doesn't appear in device manager nor is detected by my bios but is installed correctly into the motherboard. My first m.2 shows up just fine but the 2nd one doesn't they are both Western Digital Blue 3D nand sata ssd's one being 1tb and the other being 500gb I also have 2 hard drives plugged into my motherboard. The mother board I'm using is a MSI B-550 A-Pro. Any advice is appreciated cause I'm at a loss.

Make sure your BIOS' device config has M.2 Device set to Enabled or Auto.

Also review your manual. Some M.2 slots when allocated cancels out SATA ports or vice versa.

Try unplugging all drives and boot to BIOS if your BIOS can detect the M.2.

There are 2x M.2 ports.
Only the M2_1 is SATA compatible.

Your WD Blue drives will not work in M2_2.
