Cannot get option `force m2_2` with newest BIOS

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

   I recently got a new m.2 nvme PCIe drive. That is when I found out that the B450M Pro4 does not have 2 nvme PCIe slots, but instead one is specifically for SATA.

After some searching I found that a newer version of the BIOS should have an option to force the SATA slot to support PCIe and so I upgraded to the newest version. However, after upgrading, I could not find the option in the BIOS settings.

System specs:
- Motherboard: Asrock B450M Pro4
- CPU: AMD Ryzen 3 3200G
