Hi there, i just got a new ssd today and its not showing up anywhere. I got a WD SN550 nvme ssd. My MOBO is the Asus strix z370-e mother board, ive tried multiple things in the bios including enablign the hyperx m.2 among other things without any sucess. Ive also updated the bios and same thing, no sucess. I was wondering if anyone has any advice on how to get my computer to read the SSD
 
Solution
Try resetting your bios by removing the CMOS battery maybe that will help.

IDE interface is mostly used for old HDD it will work with any HDD, but I heard that it can effect speeds.

did u update storage controller drivers?
check in bios
  1. Select Serial ATA and press Enter.
  2. Then you’ll see SATA Controller Mode Option. Choose the IDE Compatibility Mode.
  3. save and exit
I don’t see serial ata anywhere. I found the sata controller and its options are enable and disable. And the sata mode selection is ahci or intel rst premium
