SSD Shows in bios but not in Windows.

[wolfmcbeard]

I recently grabbed a new ssd (a 2tb Teamgroup MP33) to put in my second m.2 slot, but it's not showing up in windows anywhere, I rebooted to get to the bios menu and it does show there.
Is there something I'm missing or some option in Windows I don't know about to initialize it or could I potentially have too many devices since I have two sata drives for storage and another ssd?

Ok, well, it shows in device manager after I intelligently checked again after posting, and it was there and I was able to initialize and format it.
Third reseating and reboot's the charm I guess, please feel free to berate me now

So, it's not showing up in Disk Management and/or Device manager  ?

 

edit : Welp, I guess it's now solved.

It didn't the first couple of times, I fiddled with it a third time but only checked file explorer because being tired equals a smooth brain.
