So in order to use my M.2 i had to configure SATA mode to RAID. This unfortunately disabled my 2.5in SSD and I have no idea how to get windows to recognize it. I already tried going to Disk Management and nothing shows up. Any suggestions?

Make sure your SSD isn't plugged into SATA 5/6, as the M.2 slot shares bandwidth with those. Check your motherboard manual for further details.
