Question Samsung 970 EVO+ M.2 2280 not seen in Windows 10 / Bios

[exiledgolem]

Hi all,

I recently did a new build and used my previous m.2 from my last build but I'm unable to see it in Windows 10(disk management) or the bios.

AMD 3600x
ROG STRIX X570-F GAMING
MSI GTX 1070
Samsung 970 EVO+ M.2 2280
2 x G.Skill Ripjaws V 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4-3200
Corsair RM750x

I have the m.2 installed in the mobo on the first slot as per the manual.

I've tried...

1. Upgrading bios to newest revision
2. disabling secure boot
3. disabling csm
4. reseating the m.2
5. using the 2nd m.2 slot to no avail

I finally decided to buy another drive to install windows temporarily.

Crucial BX500 1TB SSD 3D NAND SATA III

Everything works great... any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

Edit: forgot to mention, I also installed every driver from the motherboard website just fine.
I also tried installing the evo drivers but... for some reason I get a blue screen when installing them.
