My M.2 SSD and SATA HDD won't show up after upgrading to AM5 – Help!
Asked by

Hey everyone! I just got my PC back from being upgraded from an AM4 to an AM5 setup, but I'm really frustrated because my D: and E: drives aren't showing up at all, neither in Windows nor in the BIOS. I've double-checked the connections inside the PC, and everything seems to be plugged in correctly. The strangest part is that my boot M.2 SSD is working perfectly fine. I'm using an Aorus B850 Elite Wifi 7 ICE motherboard. Any suggestions on what might be going wrong? Oh, and I think the second M.2 is a Crucial PRO 1TB SSD. Thanks for your assistance!

Could you provide more details about the M.2 SSD? Just saying 'M.2' isn't enough, there are different types and some might not be supported with your new board.

It sounds like the SATA M.2 drive might not be compatible with your new motherboard. For the HDD, make sure the cables are securely connected and try plugging it into a different SATA port. Something might have changed in the setup during the upgrade that needs to be adjusted.
TechWizKid43: Thanks for the tip! I'll check the cables and ports to see if that helps.

TechWizKid43: I'm not exactly sure of the models anymore, but I think the one not detected is indeed the 1TB Crucial PRO M.2 that I mentioned earlier.
