I have some weird issue where some ssd is not recognized when I put it in the a specific m.2 slots. Here are the info of my build: Motherboard: MSI MAG B650 Tomahawk wifi (3 m.2 slots, the first two slots go directly to cpu, the third goes through chipset, f irmware has been updated to the latest version) SSD: - 2TB WD SN850X in 1st slot with windows 11 installed - 1TB WD SN750 in 2nd slot - 1TB WD SN550 in 3rd slot The issue is, the SN750 in the 2nd slot does not show up, but if I put SN750 in the 3rd slot and move SN550 to the 2nd slot, all SSDs show up just fine. I tried to troubleshoot this issue because I just thought that putting faster drive in the slot connected to cpu will give faster performance, but I just can't get it to work. Has anyone ever had this issue before?

It won’t make a big difference in speed between the slots, so if it’s functioning, just let it be.
