Question Samsung 860 EVO M.2 SATA SSD not recognized ?

[techhelp123444]

I have recently purchased a samsung 860 evo M.2 SATA to expand storage as I was running out. I have a Aorus B450 pro wifi motherboard and the other ssd is a WD black SN750 . I have installed the Samsung 860 evo but it does not show up in neither disk manager not partition. It is also not shown in device manager. I am so confused. What should I do?

M2A_SOCKET: Supports both SATA & NVMe SSD

M2B_SOCKET : Supports NVMe SSD only.

So if you've used M2B_Socket for the M.2 SATA SSD, that's why it is not being detected.
