I am installing it in the place where the hard drives go, and with the sata cables.

Your Omen Oasis motherboard supports the  PCIe NVMe Gen 3.0 x4  SSD, not SATA.

You can try using Diskpart to create a GPT volume, format it and give it a drive letter. It might be recognized then.

It may be recognized in Diskpart. See method 3 on the EaseUS web page at the hyperlink below.

I can't guarantee that the SATA type will work. 

 

Since you have already purchased and installed it, it is worth trying.
