Nothing works, tried everything I think electricity did something to  my PC , because the Internet is not recognized anymore, GPU started to work on 100% ish, both fans are working on hardcore and had to take it out, maybe it's the issue with the PSU ? and it damaged the SSD aswell ?

go into your BIOS, under the storage, you'll wanna change the mode to AHCI (IDE is the default). (page 2-6 of the manual)

Quote

You cannot switch between AHCI and IDE if you already have your operating system
installed. If you have installed your OS using AHCI and you clear your BIOS/reset to
default settings, you will need to change this function back to AHCI to ensure proper
functionality.

this should allow the SSD to be revealed.

Is it in device manager? When you click File Explorer do you see your drive there along with the rest of the drives? It may be a SATA Controller issue. To see whether it's a SATA controller issue go to: Device Manager > IDE ATA/ATAPI Controller > and ensure that all the controllers there are "Standard SATA AHCI Controller".

 

If they are not, right-click on the controller > update driver > browse my computer for driver software > let me pick from a list of available drivers on my computer > Standard SATA AHCI Controller and install that. Hope it helps.
