You recently received a 970 EVO Plus with 2TB storage. After some troubleshooting for instability, it now works but your HDD isn’t appearing in Windows yet—only in BIOS. You’ve checked everything and still can’t see it. I’ve enabled it in BIOS and Device Manager shows nothing. There’s no SATA driver listed, which is confusing. It seems the issue might be with the driver setup or compatibility. You’re using a Ryzen 7 5800X, Zotac RTX 3060 Ti, MSI MAG CoreLiquid, and other components, so double-check the drive type and firmware version.

No, it's not a completely new build.

I haven't used this computer since January 2021, though I've been making updates from time to time.

Do you possess a card slot labeled PCI_E3? "When installing PCIe SSD in M.2_2, PCI_E3 slot will be unavailable" explains this detail.
