Hardware MSI GE63 Raider RGB 8RE Storage Options

[Smoker1]

OK, so I have been wondering about this for a while......
As you can see in the Images below, the possible Storage Options are

2 PCIe Slots (3rd Slot does not have a Connector Slot and Securing Hardware)
1 2.5 HDD section

1 PCIe Slot (Horizontal) is marked for either SATA 3.0 (2 Tabs on the Connector which is M+B Keys), or a PCIe 3.0 x4 (NVMe which only has a M Key)
The other PCIe Slot (Vertical) is only for the PCIe 3.0 (NVMe).
The other Slot if I can get a Connector Installed to it, would only be able for SATA PCIe.

So my Question is - If I get the other Card Slot Installed, would it be possible to utilize all 4 Storage Options? According to the BIOS, it should be possible, but I would have 2 other Spots (which I am wondering about)

OK.....I Installed a Samsung 860 EVO SSD 2TB - M.2 SATA Internal Solid State Drive with V-NAND Technology (MZ-N6E2T0BW)

Card is being Detected in the BIOS, but in Computer Management, under Storage Devices, it is NOT showing up.

A pic showing the actual drives plugged in would help work out what you’re doing.

I’m assuming you’ve got the Samsung SATA M.2 drive on the right, Crucial MX500 on the left and Crucial P1 NVMe on the right?

Which one isn’t showing in Windows?
Have you tried opening cmd and running Diskpart, then List Disk?

You need to install nvme drivers either use Samsung's or amds

Apparently doing a Memory Diagnostic fixed why it was not being shown. There were no Errors, but when I got back to Windows and went to Computer Management / Disk Management, it came up for Initializing it.
@squee666 - According to Samsung, Drivers should not be needed
@Originality - Attached Picture. will Post another in a bit.

Everything in it's place

Definitely got them the right way round. It’s a bit weird MSI cheaped out by not putting the last connector in...

Since you got it to initialise, it’s working now, right?

Yes. Works perfectly.

Went to Fry's Yesterday to the Repair Department. From what I was told, it would have to be Soldered on (duh!), but even if I put it on, there would be no promise that it would work..........but what about the BIOS Storage Screen????? There are 2 Empty SATA Slots and 1 Empty PCIe Slot. Going to have to experiment a little.
