First, I'm kind of "obsolete" with new tech for PC so not sure what I need to get configured for what I want to achieve.

Starting from that I got Samsung 970 EVO Plus M.2 SSD on Xmas and I have plugged in into M2_1 slot on the motherboard. My Extreme6 is running P2.80 BIOS and I see that card detected under NVMe menu but not under Storage -> M2_1 (I have read about chipset vs PCIe access)

Windows 10 detected drive fine but my goal is to move OS there, but as I have no clue how to get it selected as Boot source as is not present in the Storage BIOS section.

PICe2 and PCIe4 speed is selected as AUTO for both.

Any tips are welcome.
