    SSD not showing up in Disk Management etc.


    The M.2 SSD is showing up in BIOS though just not on windows

    It has windows 10 on it, I'm currently using my old HDD because I prefer windows 7 in all honesty

    I want to use the SSD for programs, so I plan on formatting it etc but it's not showing up in Disk Management


    HDD kills Display

    Horse feathers. I never needed to add any drivers to install SSDs in my Win 7 machines. AT most, all that is needed is to have the BIOS set for AHCI (which all my machines were already set to).
