Storage devices showing up as SCSI

Hi, Recently I tried to do a system checkup for my storage devices using crystaldiskinfo. It kept showing me 'Drives not found' https://puu.sh/HCOs9/f54df8d2fb.png

After checking my drives in device manager I found out that they were SCSI drives. https://puu.sh/HCOAX/6c2fea9ac3.png

I don't even know when they got changed. All I remember a while ago I had installed AMDs storeMI software. I am not sure whether it affected my drives. I checked my BIOS settings and the SATA is set to AHCI mode.

Both my nvme ssd(XPG sx8200 pro) and WD 1tb 7200rpm drive show as SCSI. Should I be worried? I would like to change it back to how they were originally as I would like to use crystaldiskinfo. ADATAs own software too throws an error for no drive detection. I use an msi b550 board with Ryzen 5600x if any of that matters.

I wouldn't change anything. You're liable to render the drives either blank, or windows in an unbootable state.

For the record, all of mine list as "SCSI" as well, and their speed is just fine, don't lose sleep over this
