I had a similar problem on different motherboard recently. Your motherboard shares sata ports with sata express meaning only one sata device can be active at one time. Have a look at section 2.6.8 of your motherboards instructions to see if this helps.

I switched to the settings it said and it booted up on the m.2 and it was a clean version of windows all my stuff was gone and now the hdd wasn’t showing so I switched it back
