Windows 10 doesn't see my SSD, but my Motherboard detects it.

I just got an SSD for christmas, and thought that it would be just like a HDD, plug in, partition, and go. But this one seems a little trickier, I've partitioned the disk, it appears in my BIOS and I can set it as a boot device, but when I load my OS (Windows 10) the SSD does not appear.

I looked online and apparently I can manually enable/force Win10 to see the disk, but my BIOS doesn't have the feature I'm looking for (as far as I can see anyway). It's Click BIOS 4 on Msi G43 Gaming.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Download/Install the drivers first. If that doesn't detect the disc, install Seagate DiscWizard (it's free) and you should go to Disc management > Add a new disc > Select a dics : http://prntscr.com/9jegmd > Create a new PARTITION in the disc (select NTFS). That should pop up in the Windows then.

Ok Now I feel really dumb, because I was attempting to use the sofware that Kingston gives, instead of just using the windows Disk Management. Thanks for the screen shot, made me remember about formatting in the OS.

I had the same problem xD Then I downloaded Seagate's DiscWizard and it worked.
