I just installed an MP33 from Teamforce, and when I plug it in, it shows up in nowhere. I mean nowhere. Not BIOS, File Explorer, Device Manager, Disk Partions. Nothing. Is it broken, is my m.2 broken, or something else. And no, I do not have a bios setting enabled so m.2 doesn't work, my m.2 I have had for a couple years now, is an m.2 SSD
#MP33 M.2 Broken

Check compatibility: Make sure your computer's motherboard supports M.2 SSDs, and that it supports the type of M.2 SSD you have installed (such as NVMe or SATA). Check your motherboard's manual to confirm.
Check physical connections: Make sure the M.2 SSD is properly installed and secured in the M.2 slot on your motherboard. Double-check the connection and make sure it is fully seated.
Check BIOS settings: Verify that your computer's BIOS settings are configured to recognize the M.2 SSD. Some motherboards have a setting that disables M.2 slots, so make sure that is not enabled. You may also need to enable the "NVMe RAID mode" or "M.2 mode" in the BIOS, depending on your motherboard.
Update drivers: Install the latest drivers for your motherboard and the M.2 SSD. You can usually find these on the manufacturer's website.
Check power: Make sure the M.2 slot is receiving power from the power supply. Some motherboards may require an additional power cable to be connected to the M.2 slot.
Try another slot: If your motherboard has multiple M.2 slots, try installing the SSD in another slot to see if it is recognized.
Test the SSD: If none of the above steps work, there may be an issue with the M.2 SSD itself. You can try testing it with a different computer or using a diagnostic tool like CrystalDiskInfo to check its health and performance.
I realize you said you checked some of these, but it's always worth taking a second look
