Hi,
MB: AB350M Pro4

BIOS: P2.40
HDD: Samsung SSD 850 EVO 250GB, WDC WD Blue 1TB

The SATA interface specs of the AB350M http://rd.bizrate.com/rd%3ct=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2Fdp%2FB06X9LN3QK%2Fref%3Dasc_df_B06X9LN3QK5219750%3Fsmid%3DA1W7VJMCZRZBUQ%26tag%3Dshopz0d-20%26ascsubtag%3Dshopzilla_mp_1360-20%3BSZ_REDIRECT_ID%26linkCode%3Ddf0%26creative%3D395105%26creativeASIN%3DB06X9LN3QK&mid=184059&cat_id=419&atom=10028&prod_id=&oid=7346726201&pos=1&b_id=18&bid_type=4&bamt=235eb41f759d9103&cobrand=1&ppr=45c83f111cb624e9&rf=af1&af_assettype_id=12&af_creative_id=2973&af_id=615103&af_placement_id=1&dv=e8edbf9a6588900b15b1c43433b3be56" rel="nofollow - are, from the specifications:

Thanks for contacting ASRock.

Please update to BIOS P3.00 to check the SATA hot plug option.

Step1: Please make a bootable USB device in the first step, and the USB format should be FAT32.

Step2: Unzip the file and save ROM file in root directory of bootable USB device.
Step3: Load BIOS default, and enter BIOS > Tool > Press [instant fresh]
( Press [Del] in post screen )

Step4: During BIOS updating, do not plug off the power.

After finishing the process, please enter the main page of BIOS to check BIOS version.

Thank you!

Have a great day,
