Asked by

I just installed a new NVMe M.2 SSD, but it's not appearing in Disk Management or File Explorer. However, I can see it listed in Storage Spaces. What steps can I take to troubleshoot this issue?

First, make sure to check your BIOS settings. Sometimes, drives need to be enabled there before they show up in the operating system. If the BIOS recognizes the SSD, then we can try some other steps.

DiskDoctor99: If BIOS sees it, you might want to try re-seating the drive. Sometimes a loose connection can cause issues like this.
