I assembled my first PC but the motherboard isn’t recognizing the M.2 slot. I’m having trouble identifying the issue—my motherboard is a GIGABYTE B460M DS3H V2 (LGA 1200/Intel/B460/M.2/SATA 6Gb/s/USB 3.2 Gen 1). The M.2 I have is a Team Group MS30 2280 1TB SSD. What’s going wrong? Could it be the motherboard, the M.2, or something else?

Check if the item appears in BIOS or Windows settings.

In my profile I’m unable to save Windows since there’s no space available.

Ensure no devices are connected. This setup avoids conflicts with SATA Port 6. Reinitialize the SSD and confirm all connections are secure.

It means there’s no additional storage available, as noted in the PC part picker. This could be contributing to the issue you’re experiencing.

No, you don't need to connect the PSU to a SATA port.
