Sata m.2 not working with new ASUS motherboard

[The Caped Procrastinator]

I'm putting together my new build from black friday deals.  Part of it is a brand new ASUS String X370-F Gaming motherboard and Ryzen 7 1700.  I'm reusing a 1TB WD Blue Sata M.2 SSD.  The drive was working when it was removed from my previous machine (was a Windows 10 boot device) but I can't get it to recognize on the new build.  I'm finding plenty of information on how to get nvme drives to get recognized, but nothing for sata drives.

 

Suggestions?

Try the other M.2 slot

There is only one slot on this board.

No, there is 2 of them on the board.

Edit

you're correct, only 1, read it wrong in the specs

Go to bios and change from pcie to sata

That's what I figured at first too.  My previous build I had to do the same thing and switch it from PCIe to SATA, but Asus appears to have removed the PCH storage configuration option.

It's probably auto detects. Can you see your drive in the bios?

No.  If I move it back to my old rig it shows up though.  I know the slot can be bad from the factory, but I also know thats a pretty rare chance.

Look at boot device in bios.

Done already.  I've reached out to ASUS support (I hate doing that... not good previous experiences).  Thanks for the ideas.

Try booting from os setup disc and see if it detects.

No luck.  I recreated my USB install as well in the hopes that maybe I didn't make it UEFI boot, but nothing there either.

I just moved it back to the original machine again.  Dead.  I think my SSD is hosed.  And not under warranty.
