Hello Dr.John,

I came upon this artilce from Dell Support that may help. https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/fr-fr...

TL:DR - You need to disable VDM in bios for windows to identify the new SSD. "Intel 11th Generation processors use the new Intel Volume Management Device technology. It optimizes the storage devices’ data processing effectiveness and power consumption. When you install Windows 10 or Windows 11 Retail, we must load the Intel Rapid Storage Technology (IRST) driver so that you can install Windows. It is normal, not a hardware defect." -Copied from the page.

Best of luck.
