Hello, I see you made a mistake. You're looking for assistance with your Asus TUF dash F15 laptop setup on Linux. You have Pop OS installed on both M.2 SSDs, but you need at least one for Windows. You tried formatting with NFTS and various formats using Pop OS Disk Manager, but the Windows installer didn't recognize any SSDs. You also attempted to burn a Windows ISO under different partition schemes with Rufus, but it didn't work. Could someone help you resolve this issue? Your command lines are clear, and I understand your English might need improvement.

I've considered clearing all partitions from the drive to make it blank, allowing Windows to handle the formatting correctly.

Yes, however the Windows setup still failed to recognize the M.2 drive.

Consider using specific mount settings. Bios shows SSD but isn’t listed in the boot menu. Formats like Vfat or similar aren’t well understood. Since I can’t turn off CSM, enable changes, or switch modes, options are limited. Switching to M.2 UEFI might help, though I’m unsure how to set it up without knowing the exact steps. Disk manager in Pop OS doesn’t support those formats either.

I'm really confused... it doesn't matter how I format it, the Windows setup isn't recognizing the SSD.
