Cannot use M.2 SATA drive

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   When I tried to add WDS250G2B0B to M2_2, no detect in BIOS or Win10.
However, I change a NVMe 970EVO to M2_2 and work.
So, M2_2 really doesn't support SATA M.2 drives?

	He's correct I was in the same situation as you when I recently built my pc with the X470 Taichi Ultimate. I put my Samsung 850 EVO m.2 ssd in m.2 slot 2 and it wasn't recodnized. I put it in m.2 slot 1 and it works fine.
