Posted August 30, 2023 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?

Posted August 30, 2023 Author 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 Ryzen 5 5600X - MSI B550 Mag Tomahawk - Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro SL 3200 (4x8) - EVGA RTX2060 XC Gaming 12gig - Crucial P2 250gb nvme ssd (OS) - WD Blue 1tb sata hdd (general storage) - Seagate Barracuda 4tb sata hdd (games) - iBuypower Element Reflect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.
