Hi guys,
I've bought a SSD ADATA XPG Gammix S11 Pro 2TB PCI Express 3.0 x4 M.2 2280, but my motherboard (AsRock X470 Master SLI), doesn't see it. With the driver installed it takes a very long time to get into Windows or BIOS, but nothing else.
On the storage support list of the motherboard the 2TB model doesn't appear, only smaller ones. However, other models up to 4TB are listed.
As far as I know, there shouldn't be an incompatibility between storage drive and motherboard since both are using the same standard, correct? Is there something that I'm missing or should I just take it back?
In the other m2 sata3 slot there's another storage device (Western Digital 1TB) that works without any issues - just plug n' play.
Should I return it, will it be ok to get any drive using the M.2 form factor?
