I recently boughs a Kingston a2000 500gb pcie SSD and I have been trying to get it to work for the past 5 hours however I have run into many problems, at first it wasn't detected in the bios or the pc until I messed around with some settings and then it started to show up as SM2263 and has continued to be shown as this since, however this is not the main problem, the main problem is the SSD is not letting me format it and it is also showing up as having only 1gb of storage available.

PC SPECS-
i5-8400
16gb ddr4 corsair ram
1060 6gb
ASUS H-310 PLUS motherboard
seagate 5tb HDD
 
i have initialised the hard drive however i cant send a picture for some reason but it was showing up as 1028mb then i reinstalled it and it is now showing as 2048 gb but is a protective partition which i cannot use i then cleaned the disk and it went back down to 1 gb

I have updated the bios and the driver is showing in the pcie section of the bios but not as a storage drive, when i go into disk management the drive either shows as 2tb or 1gb but the drive is 500gb and i cannot format it, when i go into task manager i can see the SSD however it has 0 read write and 0 overall activity and shows as 1000mb with 0mb formatted and a no for system disk and pagefile
