I recently upgraded the hard drive in my laptop and decided to use the old hard drive in my desktop. I installed the old hard drive in the m.2 slot on my b450Ma/c and booted up, but I don't see it listed anywhere in disk manager. I also booted into the BIOS and don't see it listed as a drive. Any suggestions to get the motherboard to recognize the hard drive?

For reference, here is the hard drive I am trying to use -- https://www.amazon.com/SAMSUNG-MZ-NLN128C-128GB-SOLID-MZNLN128HAHQ-000H1/dp/B07T2FJM1B
