Windows 10: I'm trying to install windows, but my SSD doesn't show up in List Disk

I have an Hp pavilion x360 convertible model 15t-dq200. I am trying to install a Samsung 970 evo plus SSD.I set up a windows boot USB flash drive. I have tried both Windows 10 and Windows 11, and have had the same results.As far as I can tell, my computer recognizes the boot USB drive, but not the SSD.When I get to the "Where do you want to install windows" screen, it tells me "We couldn't find any drives. To get a storage driver, click load driver". I saved Samsung magician on a separate USB drive, but I'm having difficulty using it. I selected that drive, and got the message "No signed devic

M.2 SSD Drive With Windows 10 Listed as Disk 1 in Disk Management,

Hi, In my pc M.2 SSD with Windows 10 OS is listed as Disk 1 and not as Disk 0 in Disk Management. Also, the same drive is listed as Removable devices which is actually internal SSD.

Can anybody help me resolve this, please?

 

Windows doesn`t start. Authomatic repair doesn`t work.

Thanks again!!

I`m sorry I had not noticed that the text on the picture was in spanish. It says that windows has replaced some damaged clusters in "name" file and "directory". Then, at the end "an unspecified error occurred (75736e6a726e6c2e 4f6)".

I`ll do it and I`ll be updating this thread when I have the report.

I ran SeaTools. These are the results:




Does it mean my HDD is useless?

 

M.2 SSD doesn't show up in BIOS and Windows installer

That SSD is indeed SATA (not PCIe / NVMe).

Check that it's properly seated. Once you have it detected, it will likely show up as one of the SATA devices (not an M.2 device). From the manual:

Additionally, I noticed in your motherboard's manual, that it has two M.2 ports:

• M.2_1 supports both SATA & PCIe 3.0 x4
  
• M.2_2 supports only PCIe 3.0 x4
  

Make sure that you have the SSD in the correct port (labelled M.2_1).

Also, make sure that you don't have another disk connected to the SATA6G_1 port (top).

Please just go through the motions to be 100% sure (even if you think you tried it).

1. Power off
   
2. Install SSD into M.2_1
   
3. Disconnect any drive / cable from SATA6G_1
   
4. Enter the BIOS and set M.2_1 to SATA mode
   
5. Save configuration and reboot
   
6. Check devices found by BIOS again
