Hello, I was running out of disk space so I decided to buy an NVME SSD from Samsung, the model I'm trying to install is this one; https://www.samsung.com/nl/memory-storage/nvme-ssd/970-evo-nvme-m-2-ssd-1tb-mz-v7e1t0bw/" rel="nofollow - https://www.samsung.com/nl/memory-storage/nvme-ssd/970-evo-nvme-m-2-ssd-1tb-mz-v7e1t0bw/

I'm just really confused as to why its not showing up in the bios.
My bios version is 4.7 and I cannot seem to update it, I tried updating it to 6.6 but it froze after selecting the installation file. It doesn't update when I select the network flash either.

My cpu is a 1700x and my motherboard is a AB350M PRO4, the NVME drive is installed in the Ultra M.2 slot.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Alright so after more hours of troubleshooting and looking for answers, I've come to the conclusion that either my mobo slot or drive is dead.
