Try the Intel storage controller drivers that I zipped up and attached below so Windows can find the drive.

 

Copy all of the files in both folders in the attached file to a USB flash drive.

 

Have the flash drive and your Windows installation media plugged into USB ports.

 

Boot from the W10 installation flash drive.

 

When you get to the screen where no drives can be found, click on the Load driver option, browse to the flash drive with the storage controller drivers on it.

 

If you check the box, it will only include the compatible driver.

 

Click Next and if those are the right drivers Windows should find the drive and install.

You're very welcome.

 

Unfortunately, I wouldn't be able to help you with that because I have never encountered that problem before.
