SSD not recognized in Disk Management

Hello everyone,

Lacking space, I bought a second SSD (990 EVO) to connect to the second M2 port of my motherboard (B550 F GAMING). The drive appears well in the BIOS, also in devices and CrystalDisk but not in the Windows disk manager, so I can't format it for it to be detected by Windows.

I installed the AMD RAID driver for my board, enabled RAID mode, disabled NVME RAID: still not detected. The SATA drive is recognized in RAID mode and AHPI.

I reconfigured AHPI to default across the board.

Does anyone have a solution?

Thank you in advance.

Hello

When you go into File Explorer and "This PC," do you see your SSD?

Do you know what format it is in (ntfs, exfat, ext3, fat32)?

Best regards

If it doesn't fit on a computer, we don't force it.
When we don't know, we can't guess.

No, it's not showing up... I need to format it beforehand, but since it doesn't appear in the disk management tool, I can't :( so not in any format for now

Hello,

go to the Windows search area and search for "Create and format hard disk partitions", then open the manager. In this menu, check if the SSD is detected. Sometimes the problem arises from a disk with no partitions at all. If that’s the case, right-click on the greyed-out area of the SSD and create a new partition that takes up all the space on the disk (or several partitions if you want). I hope this will solve your problem!

Actually, my SSD doesn't show up here, so I can't create partitions for it :(

Good evening,

Open a command prompt as an administrator.

Type Diskpart,

List disk, press Enter

Does the SSD appear?
