New SSD from best buy. Bios sees it. Formats successfully. Download steam game to new ssd. Bios no longer sees it. Move to spare PC still unseen.

Return and repeat. 3rd drive has now failed the same way. 3rd drive is same model ssd as boot drive which has had no issues and is over a year old. Tried different sata cable in different port but the crazy part is same result with a new m.2 ssd.

Why is this PC bricking every SSD put in it?
