Hey, a few years back I bought a lenovo y910-17ISK laptop and I bought aa Kingston A2000, 500GB, NVMe, M.2 for it. And for some reason, the windows I have on the HDD sees the SSD, can write and read from it. Bios sees it.

 

The Kingston website says it's compatible with the laptop. 

 

but when I want to install a new windows onto it, the installer doesn't see it. Neither does the command prompt.

 

I tried, pretty much everything you can find on the lenovo forums, or on youtube. Trying Raid, or AHCI, Legacy or UEFI , no luck :/

 

Also if I put it on raid, the os automatically tries to repair the system for some reason. 

 

The laptop has an 1T WD HDD in it by default.

 

Tried leaving only the ssd in, no luck. 

 

Tried a hundred different intel raid drivers as for some people that work. No luck again.

 

Any suggestions?
