Hello, I own an Asus ROG B550-A gaming motherboard with two Kingston NVMe SSDs and one Samsung SATA SSD. When using both NVMe drives together, I don’t see the SATA SSD in the BIOS, even though it’s visible with just one NVMe. In Windows, I can only use one drive at a time, and I haven’t installed Windows on either of them. It isn’t in RAID, and I checked how many times this has happened in the BIOS. Removing one NVMe lets me see the SATA SSD and install Windows on it, but the other remains inaccessible. Can someone assist me?

Check the details of your motherboard's specifications. Certain boards may disable SATA connections when using two NVMe drives. The manual should indicate which ports are affected.

However, I believe I can still utilize one NVMe drive alongside my SATA SSD.

Yes, clear the CMOS and attempt again.

You can combine NVMe and SATA storage. Check the motherboard documentation to identify which SATA connections remain active.

Yes, it functions properly now, though you're limited to a single M.2 SSD.
