I acquired a new laptop with an additional NVMe port that you could use without taking it apart. I installed my existing NVMe SSD and it wasn’t being read by the FSR. When I connected it back to my old laptop, it worked perfectly, so I suspected there might be a BIOS setting enabling the extra slot. I’ve spent hours adjusting settings but haven’t seen the other SSD appear. I’m considering using the internal NVMe port but don’t want to open the laptop since the warranty would be voided. If there’s a specific setting I need to enable first, let me know. CPU: AMD Ryzen 5500U Storage: Kingston Design-In NVMe SSD

Your device may require the specified machine model for accurate assistance. It's possible the slot isn't compatible since it's designed for SATA M.2 only, not PCIe, which could be an issue with your desktop or laptop.

We need the precise model and make of your laptop for assistance. It seems to be a standard M.2 SATA port, which isn't compatible with NVMe drives. Although M.2 SATA is outdated, some older laptops and desktops still include it as an expansion option.
