HP Recommended
Product: Pavilion M7
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Pretty much as the title says: ICYdock told me their slim SSD hotswap would work in my HP Pavilion M7 with Win10 x64 home.  It doesn't.  It's not recognized by the BIOS, Windows, or Device Manager.  The only option for that in the BIOS is an optical drive, and it flatly won't recognize the SSD, either Samsung or HP.  My desktop Win10 x64 recognizes them both just fine.  Not seen for boot, not seen as a drive or partition.  Is there a solution, or is the Pavilion M7 not capable of such an upgrade?  ICYDock thought it was compatible.... then again, I'm not impressed with them.
