[SOLVED] New M.2 won't show

[B1nG0]

I recently bought a new Corsair M.2 MP510 SSD 960gb.
I've mounted it to the board in a corresponding open slot.
However it won't show anywhere.

I'm running a
Asus ROG B450-F motherboard
Ryzen 3 3200G
GeForce GTX 770
16 gb Corsair DDR4 Ram
Corsair M.2 MP300 SSD 480 gb (Registers just fine, boot drive)
Kingston SA400S3748G (SSD 500 GB, registers just fine)
Windows 10. 64.
Corsair M.2 MP510 SSD (issue drive that won't show in BIOS or any other place)


SOLVED:

Bought a PCIE M.2 adapter, installed the M.2 on the adapter and installed the adapter in the third (bottom) PCIE Slot. Now everything works.

Thank you guys for your time and help!

Check the motherboard manual as the m.2 slot may share resources with a SATA port that's in use.

Can't seem to find a part about m.2 and SATA sharing resources. But as far as I can tell, my current m.2 and SATA config shouldn't prevent registration of a new SSD.

What socket do you have it installed in?

 

[jon96789]

Your Kingston drive must be plugged in to SATA Port 1... Using two M.2 SSDs will use the same channels as the LAST FOUR SATA ports, so the last four SATA ports must be unused.

AMD Ryzen 2nd Generation / Ryzen 1st Generation Processors: *
1 x M.2 Socket 3, with M key, type 2242/2260/2280 storage devices support (SATA & PCIE 3.0 x4 mode)**
1 x M.2 Socket 3, with M key, type 2242/2260/2280/22110 storage devices support (PCIE 3.0 x4 mode)***

* Support StoreMI and NVMe RAID.
** When the M.2_1 Socket 3 is operating in SATA or PCIE mode, SATA6G_5/6 ports will be disabled.
*** When the M.2_2 is occupied by M.2 device, PCIe x16_1 will run at x8 mode.

Only ports 5 & 6 get disable if you use the M2_1 slot.
Using the other M2 cuts the GPU's lanes down to 8 from 16.

 

[B1nG0]

Both my m.2 sockets are being used.
My Kingston drive is in SATA port 1.

Stil no luck.
I've also updated the BIOS, just to eliminate that.

 

[jon96789]

Just to confirm, SATA port 1 is the bottom port as you look at the motherboard and is the port on top of the two port connectors...

Use of Vega Graphics Processor (Ryzen 3 3200G) eliminates the use of one of the M.2 ports.

Ryzen with Radeon Vega Graphics Processor :
1 x M.2 Socket 3, with M key, type 2242/2260/2280 storage devices support (SATA & PCIE 3.0 x 4 mode)
2 x SATA 6Gb/s port(s)
AMD B450 chipset :
4 x SATA 6Gb/s port(s),
Support Raid 0, 1, 10

So your saying I can't utilize my to M.2 slots ?
I'm really not a tech pro.. So some of the answers you guys post are difficult for me to understand

Update:

BIOS has been updated.
Kingston SSD has been removed.

The new M.2 still DOES NOT shot up anywhere.

@Calvin7 - refered to something regarding a Vega GRaphics Processor limiting the M.2 port usage.
Any workaround this ?

Did you try the other m.2 slot?

 

[B1nG0]

Did you try the other m.2 slot?

Both my M.2 slots are being used. the first slot is being used by the M.2 with windows. The other one is the one not showing up anywhere

 

[drivinfast247]

As Calvin7 stated above, by using a "g" series Ryzen you disable one of the m.2 slots.

@drivinfast247 and @Calvin7 - Thank you guys for your responses.
I had to see if this issue was true, so I swapped to 2 M.2 drives and booted to see what would happen. The windows m.2 (the one with windows installed) ended up not showing either in the other slot.
However, my new M.2 did show, but was not able to boot since it didn't have windows on it.

So Thank you for your help.

Is there a way to enable both m.2 slot using a Ryzen G-series cpu or am I screwed?

You can install PCIE M.2 adapter and place it into third (lower) PCIE x16 slot. This will allow you to install second M.2 drive.

Or you could change your cpu to model without Vega graphics.
