So I just made a new rig.
AMD 9800x3d
Aorus aB850
3 m.2 ssds.
A 500gb WD black with the OS
A 500gb WD Black as a backup with important info.
And a Samsung 980 2tb that I use for games.

When I made my new rig I removed the drives from my old one and put them in the new one. The 2 WD drives work perfectly. The Samsung shows up in the bios. The test in the bios says it is running fine and shows it's info correctly. The device manager shows it under disk drives and also says it is running perfectly. The issue I am having is that it is not showing up as a hard drive as storage.

I have tried switching the port it is connected to, uninstalling and reinstalling the driver. Looked in storage spaces. Going through CMD and it doesn't see it. I reinstalled windows fresh and ran windows update and tha didn't fix it either. Also tried to download the driver from the Samsung site and when I try to run it, it says no Samsung is installed.
