 +===== My NVMe SSD is not detected in BIOS/OS installation. What can I do? =====
 +Modern M.2 SSDs (such as Samsung's 970 series) use the PCIe lanes of the M.2 slot. This is why they won't be detected as "SATA DEVICES" in BIOS. Please note that the NVMe driver needs to run in UEFI mode.
 +
 +{{:faq:hardware:expansion_card:m2_ssd_with_without_pcie_interface.jpg?nolink&600|}}
 +
 +Please check the below settings in BIOS and change accordingly.
 +
 +  * **Setting 1**
 +    - Go to **Advanced** tab
 +    - Enter **OnBoard Device Configuration**
 +    - Change **M.2 PCIE/SATA Select** from ''SATA'' to → ''PCIe''
 +{{:faq:hardware:expansion_card:bios_settings_m2_1.jpg?nolink&600|}}
 +  * **Setting 2**
 +    - Go to **Boot** tab
 +    - Change **Boot Mode Select** from ''LEGACY'' to → ''UEFI''
 +{{:faq:hardware:expansion_card:bios_settings_m2_2.jpg?nolink&600|}}
  
 +  * When both settings were changed, please install the OS from DVD or USB device.
 +  * When the OS is installed, the NVMe drive will be shown in the ''BOOT'' list of the BIOS. Under Windows 10 it is named ''[WINDOWS BOOT MANAGER]''. The name may vary depending on the OS installed.
