Installed a Samsung 970 EVO Plus SSD in the M.2 Socket 3 (M Key) on the AMD Ryzen 5 2400G Motherboard of my HP Pavilion 590-p0044. The SSD is listed under the Disk Drives folder of the Device Manager, and shows that it is operating properly, but shows that it was not migrated due to "partial or ambiguous match." It does not show up in the "This PC/Devices and Drives" pane. Installed the "NVME Driver" and "Data Migration" software downloads from the Samsung website. The "Samsung NVME Controller" is listed under the "Storage Controllers" folder. Updated the SSD device driver which showed I had the most current. Multiple restarts, but no change.
Will the HP Pavilion 590-p0044 accept the Samsung 970 EVO Plus? Solutions?
Solved! Go to Solution.

AHA! Problem solved. Not being a qualified geek, I forgot to format the SSD. Disk Management formatting used to create partition(s) using NTFS and "quick format". SSD now shows up in Devices and Drives pane. Fully operable. Proved Samsung correct when it shows the Samsung 970 EVO Plus compatible with Ryzen motherboards.
Hooray!
