OMEN 17.3 inch Gaming Laptop PC 17-ck0000 IDS Base Model
Microsoft Windows 11

So, a bit of background.  When I got this laptop, I tried to run it in raid with another larger ssd drive since it has two ssd slots.  It wouldn't work so what I ended up doing was formatting the old one.  I decided to do the same thing to the ssd that came originally with windows 11 and install windows 10.  For some reason I tried to do so from the cmd prompt in the windows 10 installer media I had.  I messed up and in the middle of formatting I accidentally closed the cmd window I was using.  This caused my laptop to be unable to run.  I continually got a 3f0 error message on boot up.  Finally, I was able to get a windows 11 installer to work to try to reinstall windows onto the laptop. However, when I tried to install windows the sdd did not show up.  I also kept getting a message about needing drivers.   I thought it was weird, so I checked the diskpart-list disk from the cmd and my ssd does not show up.  Before this happened, I could see the original ssd in cmd but now I can't, and I am unable to figure out where to go from here.  I tried troubleshooting in system diagnostics and the drive shows up and passed the tests in both the quick and extensive diagnostics and it shows up in the bios, but I can't install on it.  Nothing else will boot other than the windows 11 usb.  I tried boot from a usb with linux and ubuntu but it will not work.  Sorry for the long post but I just hope more detail will help resolve this issue.

I figured out the problem I was having.  I followed this video and the installation worked.  The video explains why I was not seeing my ssd and how to fix it.
