What’s the motherboard model? Which slot are you attempting to use? Is it a physical X16 slot with only a X8 connection? Do you have any other slots available for M.2 drives?
It's a MSI X470 GAMING PRO. Tried both upper x16 slots. The second one seems to be x8, but the first one doesn't work either despite being x16. I have other m.2 slots but they're already used up - however those are smaller SSDs so worst case I could move my OS to a SATA drive and populate those m.2 slots with the larger and newer SSDs that i bought! 😂
