Hello every one, yesterday I assembled my pc and now when I turn on my pc its bios does not show any sata drive. I removed my sata M.2 drive and inserted it again but nothing changed. so please tell me that do bios have different settings for m.2 or my motherboard is damaged. And that M.2 is running perfectly fine on my friends pc.

thanks.

1.What motherboard?

2. What M.2 SSD?

3. What SATA ports are you using?

This M.2 SSD does not work with this motherboard.

The Motherboard M.2:

Quote

1 x M.2 connector (Socket 3, M key, type 2242/2260/2280/22110 PCIe 3.0 x4/x2 SSD support

As you can see, there is no support for M.2 SATA SSD's.

 

You need to either get a different SSD, or different board. The SSD needs to be of the M.2 PCIE/NVME standard, or 2.5" SATA.

 

P.S. Keep in mind two SATA ports get turned off when using an M.2 SSD:

It's the SATA ports you might use for 2.5" SSD's, HDD's, optical drives (like DVD drives), etc.:

Looks like that sata limitation would be no issue.

I suggest an Intel 660p or adata sx8200 as a good option for an ssd.
