ssd activation

[Gigiusia]

Hi, I have inserted a 2TB PCIe Gen 3x4 M.2 2280 SSD into the free slot of my NUCi7HVB-vers. J68196-602.

I see it's included in the Intel Support Assistant detailed report but I don't see it configured as a disk in the PC to use it.
What can I do to activate it?

Thanks to those who can help

•  Open Disk Management.  
• If you don't see the new drive in Disk Management, press Action in menu and then Rescan  Disks.

•      If your see the new drive but it is not initialized, Right-click the drive marked as "Unknown" and "Not Initialized," and select Initialize Disk.
•      Select GPT (GUID Partition Table) and press OK
•      Once the drive is initialized, right-click the Unallocated space, and select New Simple Volume
•      Click Next.
•      Choose the volume size or leave the default size if you're planning to use the entire hard drive to store files.
•      Click Next.
•      Select a drive letter from the drop-down menu.
•      Click Next.
•      Select the NTFS file system.
•      On "Allocation unit size," leave the Default option.
•     Type a descriptive name in Volume label field.
•     Clear the Perform a quick format option.
•     Click Next.
•     Click Finish. Once you completed the steps, Windows 10 will set up a new partition and properly format the hard drive.
•  
•     If your drive is initialized, you need only to format it.  Right-click the drive you want and click Format.
•     Type a descriptive name.
•     Select the NTFS file system.
•     On "Allocation unit size," leave the Default option.
•     Clear the Perform a quick format option.
•     Click OK.
•     Click OK on the warning message. Once the formatting process completes, you can then begin to store files on the hard drive.

I would also like to expand the RAM, are there procedures for this memory as well?
Thanks and see you soon.

I suggest that you buy memory modules from the list of products Validated by Intel for your NUC (NUC8i7HVK). 

This is a link to Kingston validated memory

Finally, link to Crucial validated memory.
