I recently got an SSD (Samsung EVO 860) and am trying to install it but for some reason it shows up in my BIOS but not in diskmanagement. So I cannot format and use it.
The SSD shows up in device manager:
But not in disk management or when listing all disks in the command prompt (it just shows my old 500gb HDD):
I have tried every SATA port and two different cables but evertime the result is the same. It also shows up in a rapid storage program from intel:
The mode is AHCI. I also tried getting the latest drivers but windows says it already has them. Uninstalling the IDE ATA/ATAPI Controllers and restarting also didn't work.
What can I do? The rapid storage program says the state is normal and finds no issues with the SSD. It is brand new so I doubt it is broken.
If it might be relevant, my motherboard is: Asus z170 Pro Gaming
