The M.2 appears as a boot choice plus a connection in the BIOS, and even after removing it you can still access Windows via USB.

Absolutely, it won't require installing the operating system. At this stage, we're just moving forward steadily.

It seems like the device is mostly just the main board with peripherals connected. There appears to be an issue that wasn't fixed or installed properly.

You have multiple USB drives, and it seems the system can recognize them well enough. What if you removed one drive and installed Windows from another? Since the computer can’t distinguish between different hard drives, the missing USB would appear as an empty drive. You could connect both M.2 drives—install one while using a blank one as a backup. This way you’d have a working installation media and a spare for testing.
