Installed a Samsung SSD Interne 970 EVO NVMe M.2 (1TB) fit in an ASUS® X99-S No sign of it in BIOS but Windows explorer sees it. The card is formatted and cloned with the OS. Wanted to use it as boot drive but can't if the BIOS doesn't see it. Any sensible suggestions would be appreciated.

Well installed the card but not showing in Bios it's showing in "file explorer" but no sign of it in the bios so can't use it to boot to. Do I need a firmware update or is there something else amiss. I formatted the card and cloned the complete system to it. Obviously the original ssd drive is...

Thanks for all your imput but after being involved with IT since the early 70's and writing software I find the thought of reinstalling Windows every six months bloody crazy and totally unnecessary. Reinstalling all the pirated software would give me a heart attack.🤭

Thanks for reply. I'll give it some thought, as the system is getting a bit long in the tooth after six years of hammering.

Would a Samsung SSD Interne 970 EVO NVMe M.2 (1TB) fit in an ASUS® X99-S: ATX, HSW-E CPU, USB 3.0, SATA 6 GB/s. If so, would I notice any difference with what it's running now a 1TB Samsung 840 EVO SSD, SATA 6Gb/s (upto 540MB/sR | 520MB/sW)?

Will an ASUS® X99-S: ATX, HSW-E CPU, USB 3.0, SATA 6 GB/s motherboard take a Samsung SSD Interne 970 PRO (1TB) - MZ-V7P1T0BW

Just ordering a custom PC with a 1tb SSD without an OS, will transfer old via Acronis, is it necessary to have the SSD partitioned?
