Go to Solution7577 NVMe drive not recognized
I am attempting to clone then replace my Crucial brand M.2 SATA that has my OS and associated files with a Hynix brand NVMe SSD. I have the Hynix NVMe in a compatible enclosure than can read the 2280 drivers with a USB and USB-C connection. No connection cable or port allows the new NVMe drive to be recognized by Windows.
I am only using the Hynix because I got a much better deal than the Crucial SSD, with equal capacity that shows to be compatible with the 7577:
Crucial P5 Plus 2TB PCIe M.2 2280SS Gen4
SK Hynix platinum P41 2TB PCIe NVMe M.2 2280 Gen4
I was informed the 7577 can't read "Gen4" NVMe, but I am sure this is not accurate since Crucial has always been accurate in their compatibility information for me. My primary goal is to avoid a complete re-install and instead just clone using Macrium Reflect and replace the older SSD, but unfortunately I can not access or format the new Hynix NVMe to do either process because my 7577 won't recognize it.
I have no idea if I am in RAID or AHCi, but I assume RAID since I am sure it's in default Dell mode. Does RAID or AHCi impact the ability to read a new NVMe drive in an enclosure?
Any ideas?
