It was basically a duplicate of this one.
I bought two of these: HP EX900 M.2 1TB PCIe 3.1 X4 Nvme 3D TLC NAND Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) Max 2100 Mbps And only the top one works now... They both used to work just fine. I even purchased a third to see if it was defective and alas not even the new one will show as a second m.2...

It most absolutely was not.
That thread was about getting my secondary m.2 drive reading in the BIOS / DISK MANAGEMENT.
It had absolutely nothing to do with recovering data from a RAW partition.
But thanks again for deleting everything I wrote. This was the only place I had been saving the information for the discussion / troubleshooting.
EDIT: You can delete this thread as well. I was just hoping you'd be able to recover my post and message it to me so I could add it to the other thread.
