Itd AHCI, and there is no other option
My new crucial mx500 does not show on bios so I cant install windows, why?
Bought a new crucial mx500 sata ssd, for my asus x555ld, to make it a litle faster, but it does not show up on bios, it does show on list part, and if I boot from usb drive, I can see it as an option to install windows, but then it says it does not have a driver, any ideas?

In BIOS, is there a setting for SATA Mode and if so, is that set to AHCI or IDE?

Honestly, if unlugging and re-connecting that drive caused it to disappear, that does indicate a problem, it would be best to replace that new SSD, it is probably faulty, they will replace it under warranty.

I think there may be a problem with that SSD or the connection to that drive.
