dell 5175 does not recognize adata xpg sx8200 pro in bios

I was hoping to install a larger m.2 drive in my 5175 but the system does not recognize the adata xpg sx8200 pro in bios.

Is there a bios update that can fix this or are we limited on which m.2 nvme drives are supported by Dell?

Or does the 5175 use an M.2 SATA SSD?

I am have a Dell Precision 7530 and I am having the same issue trying to install an ADATA XPG SX8200 Pro 1TB drive.

I know I'm over a week late in seeing this and responding; however, upon reading a bit on the sx8200 pro's, just a theory, but it could have to do with your controller settings.  RAID vs AHCI.  Can't tell you which the sx8200 pro requires/prefers, but it might at least give you some direction on resolving your problem.  I'm considering a sx8200 pro for my XPS 9550; however, there've been many who've received them and the drives didn't bench up to mfg standards, so QC is a question that's floating in my mind.  Did ya'll resolve the issue already?  And if so, have you done any benchmarking by chance?  Thanks!
