BIOS fails to identify the m.2 device.
Are you only using the m.2 port? Do you have another option to try?
Remove your Seagate hard drive to check if it recognizes the SSD. Ensure it isn’t connected to any port that might prevent detection. Alternatively, you could refresh the BIOS settings and test again.
Have you attempted changing the mode from UEFI to Legacy? It’s also worth verifying the SSD type—does it support PCIe Gen 4? Your motherboard has a Z590 with a single M.2 slot designed for Gen 4, but your 10th-gen Intel CPU only supports Gen 4. Check the storage settings in the BIOS to ensure compatibility with the version specified in the manual rather than Auto. Finally, confirm whether the SSD is NVMe or SATA and if your board can handle that interface.
