My new M.2 isn't being recognized by windows disk manager

[Monksnothome]

So i installed my new m.2 and in my Asrock bios I can confirm its working correctly because the motherboard sees the M.2 plugged in. So when i boot into windows and when i go to disk management my m.2 is not showing up at all. But in device manager when i go to disk drives i can see both my HDD and my m.2. So i installed intel rapid technology and the program sees the m.2. But any other program like data migration tools they do not see the m.2. Can someone please help me i have been trying to migrate my data to the m.2 but windows isnt seeing it.

After installing your M.2 SSD, you have to go into bios, under "Advanced" settings you should find "Onboard Device Configuration", in there you should find "PCI Express X4_3 slot bandwidth option" set to auto by default. Switch it to M.2 Mode.

Hope this helped.

My mother doesn't have that in the settings but I got the m.2 to work apparently it was set as a storage pool or something so I couldn't see it in disk management but I removed the pool and was able to partition the m.2 and now it works but thanks anyway

Hope this helped.
