Hi:

What kind of M.2 SSD did you install?

SATA 6.0 or NVMe?

The specs for this model which has the same motherboard as yours, indicate it uses a NVMe M.2 SSD...

You're very welcome.

Glad to have been of assistance.

Please post back and let us know how the NVMe drive works for you.

hello sir. i successfully installed NVMe SSD on my pc and it worked very well. 

but sir the slot for SSD was disabled in BIOS setting. so,When i enabled,the SSD was successfully detected by system. and then i installed it. Thank you for solution on selection of correct type of SSD.

[Paul_Tikkanen]

Anytime.

Glad to have been of assistance, and thanks for letting us know how the upgrade went.

I will let other forum members know to check the BIOS and make sure the M.2 slot is enabled.

I would have never thought to suggest looking there if someone reported the SSD was not recognized after installation.

Where specifically in the BIOS did you find an option to enable the M.2 slot? The only settings I can find are under Slot Security. Did you change another BIOS setting besides that one?

[pranav16]

yes. i find that option in slot security in BIOS.I didn`t change  any other setting in BIOS.This is only one setting that i change in slot security.
