NVME M.2 SSD support within BIOS settings
NVME M.2 SSD support within BIOS settings
Hi everyone, I'm setting up my MSI B460M pro with a new 2.4" M.2 SSD to support dual booting between Linux and Windows. Currently, I'm using an older 2.5" SSD with Windows, plus a 2TB HDD and a 256GB SATA SSD for other needs. When I try to enable the M.2 drives, it prompts me to confirm before switching to RAID configuration after rebooting. I'm unsure if this affects all my data—does it apply to both the two M.2 SSDs or just the new ones? Thanks for your help!
I notice your M.2 drives listed in the BIOS, yet they aren’t visible on your Windows machine. It’s possible you need to turn them on or adjust settings. You might be mistaken about the steps—double-check your configuration.
In Windows, you must organize the drives via Disk Management before they appear in File Explorer. Click the Start menu icon, then select "Disk Management." The disks will show at the bottom. You’ll have to set them up, probably using GPT unless you require MBR. On Linux, I usually rely on GParted for this task.
