You are at rst with optane @batmalin. He must check if the ssd appears in the IRST and then activate the safe boot in windows and change the sata mode to ahci.

Sorry did not read what i wrote. When i put the 1TB drive in the pcie/sata slot it work, but if i put in the other slot it not working, i have chat with support of acer what a waste of time they can not help me , i try to ask them what model nvme m.2 drive is compatible  and the answer is we can not help you

The Crucial SATA goes in one slot only NVMe PCIe SSD goes in the other slot
You have 2 slots one for SATA and NVMe PCIe and one for NVMe PCIe only. So put your Crucial SATA in the slot that works and buy a NVMe PCIe SSD for the other slot. So NVMe PCIe is the name of the type of SSD that works in the other slot

Go to disk management and initialize it, assign drive letter and Win and you will see it.

What is the sata mode in BIOS?

You are at rst with optane @batmalin. He must check if the ssd appears in the IRST and then activate the safe boot in windows and change the sata mode to ahci.
