What is your Aspire 5 model number? With the new SSD M.2 some are not compatible but, most Aspire 5's have the "IRST (Intel® Rapid Storage Technology) Driver" that you need to install so that this SSD M.2 can be recognised if its not, so try that as its got nothing to do with the bios.

With the Win-11 S mode, read the MS FAQ here: Windows 10 and Windows 11 in S mode FAQ FAQ but this guide is very confusing and is as usual, typical of MS, so do more research as Switching out of S mode in Windows 11 you will need an anti-virus as Defender won't protect you as thoroughly as with S mode.

That Aspire is a A515-56 model.

In settings go to Settings  > Update & Security > Activation.

Then in the Switch to Windows 10 Home section click on Go to the Store. (Not the Upgrade go to store option)

In the store use the Switch out of S mode option and the Get to start the process.

I just use Defender and haven't gotten a virus for many years...
