Motherboard - MSI Pro b650s with Wi-Fi BIOS - 7E26v1I Drive - WD Black SN850X 4TB SSD appears in BIOS but not in disk management, and I can't re-scan it either. I've switched the PCIe setting to 4.0 in BIOS, but online advice suggests partitioning the drive and installing it properly.

I checked DiskPart to determine visibility, but it didn't show up.

Consider using the DiskPart command prompt. It displays all drives and allows formatting with extra advanced settings. Be cautious, as changes are permanent and irreversible. Follow the guidance at the provided link for details.

The DiskPart menu displays only your boot drive by default.

Open Disk Management by pressing Win + R and typing "diskmgmt.msc", press Enter. In the lower part, you’ll likely see the new SSD marked as Unknown and not initialized. You can right-click it, choose "Initialize disk," pick the unallocated space, then click "New Simple Volume." Set the desired drive letter, choose NTFS as the file system, and finish.

I'd think it might relate to the BIOS settings. I found an article that could help: https://cybertechnosys.com/how-to-enable...d-in-bios/
