Hey guys so I've had my new PC for about roughly 6 months now (since July). Decided to buy a secondary drive this week to put all my games and stuff on it. Went out and bought a 1 TB NVMe from WD since I was so satisfied with the 500GB one I used for my OS currently. When I finished installing it it's now giving me an error code 06 on my Motherboard LED and won't let me access my BIOS. Never had an issue until this. Any way I can fix this?

Current Specs are:
Ryzen 3700X (w/ PBO)
ASUS X570 Crosshair Hero VIII Motherboard (non Wi Fi)
16GB DDR4 G.skill Trident RGB 3200Mhz (w/ PBO)
EVGA Nvidia GTX 1080 FTW Edition
500GB Western Digital Blue SN500 NVMe drive
650W Seasonic Fully Modular 80+ Gold PSU

Here's a link to the drive I bought recently that could be causing this issue:

Thanks for reading!

Edit: After troubleshooting for about an hour still no fix. Still will not let me access BIOS and I even tried adjusting the actual drive to see if I didn't put it in all the way or if the screws were too tight. As soon as I tried booting without it the PC worked with no hitch.

Not that I've tried no. I have considered trying the SN500 on the slot that the SN550 is suppose to go in and see if it boots up then. Gonna have to see tomorrow however

The SN500 and SN550 are very similar of course - same controller. Never had two in the same system.
