OMEN by HP 45L Gaming Desktop PC GT22-0000i (393C5AV)
Microsoft Windows 11

Hi,

I have OMEN GT-22 45L with PCIe 4.0 x4 and I want to use it as SSD as all slots are reserved,

THE M.2 NVEME SSD to PCIe 4.0 x4 expansion Card AND M.2 NVEME SSD Both are pci-e 4

I can see the SSD on BIOS but not presented in windows,

 

what could help to present storage on OMEN GT-22 45L ? is there any special configuration on BIOS ?

Hi @Ghaith_mohammad 

 

It is good to see the BIOS sees the disk.

 

Follow steps at this Link to initialize the disk.

This is my point @Bill_To, it's not appear in Open Disk Management to initialize it.

I also can see the PCi adapter in device manager.

Hi @Ghaith_mohammad 

 

I don't know why you can't see an unallocated disk in disk management if the BIOS sees the disk and the adapter is present in Device Manager.
