M.2 problem

[turismotom100000]

I have a b450 Tomahawk max mother. Just installed a m.2 drive not recognising hard drives 

 

Any help please

When an M.2 drive is installed 2 of the 6 SATA ports are disabled, connect your hard drives to different SATA ports. Check the manual for more info on this.

Here's the snippet from the manual. The second photo is which sata ports are which on the motherboard.

Thanks for your help switch them about and they are all recognised. Just first time using a m.2 nvme gen 3 drive use to normal sata ssd can definitely tell the difference
