I just picked up the X470 Taichi Ultimate board. I have 2 M.2 2280 drives. BIOS recognizes the M.2 connected to M2_1 but not the M.2 connected to M2_2. I do not have anything plugged into SATA3_3 and my graphics card is connected to PCIE1.

I have connected the M.2 to an external enclosure and verified that the drive is working and I formatted it as well. BIOS does not recognize the drive in M2_2. I also upgraded the BIOS to version 2.0, no change in results. Any help is appreciated, thanks.

OK, seriously... You are talking about issues with SSD and we have to guess their models? :D

Post the mobo BIOS version, SSD models and make a CMOS reset just in case.

I jsut upgraded the BIOS to 2.0. SSDs are Samsung MZ-NLN256B (PM871a) and SanDisk x400. Both are 2280s.

Try swapping the drives in the M.2 slots, clear CMOS (like, really) and report back.

The M2_2 does not support SATA3 interface so it won't work with the Samsung PM871A (SATA3). Try it on the M2_1.
