Dear Darigaz,

Greetings, this is ASRock TSD.

As Hynix SC300 is a SATA type M.2 SSD, so it is normal that it only works at M2_2 slot since M2_1 slot supports PCIe Type M.2 only.

Please refer to product SPEC as below.

http://www.asrock.com/MB/AMD/AB350%20Pro4/index.asp#Specification" rel="nofollow - https://www.asrock.com/MB/AMD/AB350%20Pro4/index.asp#Specification

- 1 x Ultra M.2 Socket (M2_1), supports M Key type 2242/2260/2280 M.2 PCI Express module up to Gen3 x4 (32 Gb/s) (with Ryzen Series CPU) or Gen3 x2 (16 Gb/s) (with A-Series APU)

- 1 x M.2 Socket (M2_2), supports M Key type 2230/2242/2260/2280/22110 M.2 SATA3 6.0 Gb/s module

About the BIOS update, we suggest using DOS update to update the BIOS to P3.00 first.

Here is the DOS update SOP:
