Bios Won't Recognize m.2 SSD FIX

This may not work for everyone, but it worked for me. Hopefully it can help you!

BRO! you saved my life!!!! I couldn't find anything that would help my BIOS read my additional M2 ssd until I found this little vid. You are a rockstar! I can't believe more tutorials don't include that tip you just gave! Whew... over an hour trying to figure it out and you solved the problem in 3 mins! HUGE THANK YOU!!

Idk why there's hate on someone who took the time to shoot a video for us to try and help. Y'all entitled

I’ve been going insane for the past two days. If this is the issue I’m going to cry.

Had to surf the net for 3 straight hours to get the youtube algorithm working 😂. Thanks man, you made my day 🙏

Some motherboards with multiple m.2 slots will only allow one of them to be used as a boot drive. Check your user manual first, and if its a second hand board you can find the manual of the manufacturers site.

For ROG Strix Motherboards. Just fixed my issue. Boot > CSM > Boot from PCI-E Expansion Devices > UEFI Driver first. Hope this helps

2024 Thanks... I had 2 ASUS Z97 Hero Maximus VII boards with i7-4790k and i5-4690k loading Windows 10 on both... either would pick up the M.2s .... one was a 500GB Samsung 970 EVO Plus.... 2nd was a 1TB WD Black SN770... had to do this a few times but got both to work... Thanks again :)

Thanks buddy, that worked for me. 8 hours build, 4 hours booting windows. :) this finally helped

M.2 mode was not in the options so I tried disabling ( wait for ‘F1’ if error ) option under boot configuration and it worked to some extent meaning I still get the POST screen but after 2 to 3 secs it boots to windows !

Thanks man, I was looking everywhere to find how to fix this.

If you're still having trouble with this after the video, use a flash drive to update your bios. It will correct all of the settings.

[thomasoconnor]

I'm having the same problem right now but it's just not seeing my second hard drive

[gettinwithit]

My asus bios doesn't show up with that setting, any idea how I can find it?
