Installed new SSD, making fresh W10 install, how do I make sure SSD is detected?
Inspiron 5680
My Inspiron 5680 has a new Crucial P5 Plus SSD installed to replace the original SSD. I am currently ready to reinstall Windows 10 on the new SSD. During W10 install, “Where do you want to install Windows?” I do not see the SSD, just my DATA (HD) drive.
Is there anything I can set/check in BIOS before I start checking hardware?
Thanks!

See if SATA operation mode is set to AHCI

It was not. It’s changed now.
Still not seeing after the second attempt. I double checked, and SATA operation remains set to AHCI.
