So I recently purchased a new SSD to add to my system to replace both of the HDD's I have, it worked fine until I started putting stuff on the drive then I kept getting "a device which does not exist was specified" which I'm guessing is due to it disconnecting? I cannot figure out whether I am at my limit of lanes or whether this SSD is just faulty, any help would be greatly appreciated. I have 4 Sata slots so had to remove a drive to add the new one, was going to transfer all the data from my 2 HDD's then plug the SSD I removed back in.

-Something to add, this new drive doesn't show up in Samsung Magician

Specs:
Windows 11 Pro
Gigabyte B660 DS3H DDR4 (U3E1) Bios Version F28a
13th Gen Intel Core i7-13700K
Liquid Freezer II 240
Corsair Vengeance lpx 32gb 3200mhz
Asus RTX 4070OC
Be Quiet 850w PSU

Drives
Samsung 980 500GB NVME
WD Black SN850X 2TB NVME
Seagate 2TB HDD
Seagate 2TB  SSHD
Samsung 870 QVO 1TB SSD
Samsung 860 EVO 500GB
New troublesome drive: Samsung 870 EVO 4TB

I think it might be a fake? All my other drives come up with their names, this is just called SSD
