W10 should not need any storage controller drivers to find the drive in your PC.

 

You only need the IRST drivers for PC's with the Intel 11th > 13th gen core processors for Windows to find the drive.

 

Something else is probably wrong that I would not be able to help you with.

 

FWIW, I have zipped up and attached the IRST driver needed for the Intel Coffee Lake processors, below.

 

Unzip and copy all of the files in the folder in the attachment to a USB flash drive.

 

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

 

Boot from the Windows 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.

 

If Windows still can't find the drive, uncheck the box to include the compatible driver and try any of the ones listed.

 

Click Next, and if the missing IRST driver is the problem, Windows should install.
