Hey there, I’m not sure if this thread is the right place, but I’m hoping it’s okay. I think I might be missing something about connectivity limits or something similar. I’m using an ROG Strix X570-E Gaming board with a 5900x, and I have three drives connected. One 970evo M.2 is plugged into the first slot, and two regular SATA SSDs are also connected. So far everything is showing up and working fine, but when I try to add a third SSD it just doesn’t appear in either the BIOS or the OS. I checked the manual for any locked SATA ports while using the M.2, but didn’t find anything. I tried different SATA connections and none worked either. Would really appreciate your help, and maybe some advice about a possibly faulty drive if you have to.
