I am having trouble with my intel 660 2 TB m.2. I initially formatted it and if worked just fine, but in the past week or two I can't seem to find it anywhere but in bios. I have tried updating drivers and everything else that I could.

Did you try to check with Intel SSD ToolBox Utility? https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/29205/Intel-Solid-State-Drive-Toolbox

Yes and sadly it only seems to pick up my other drives. The Intel one dose not appear here.image

  1. Since the drive is recognized in Bios, but not in Windows, probably failed. You may request a replace it. Check your Warranty coverage here: https://supporttickets.intel.com/warrantyinfo?lang=en-US
  2. You may also see if you can find your drive using diskpart utility:
  3. Click on Windows + R keys and run diskpart command. Command Prompt window should open.
  4. In the prompt write list disk and click on enter. You should see list of all recognized drives.

So I figured it out but it's quite anticlimactic. It was a driver update. Now I tried this same update on atleast 5 separate occasions but it always said I had the most up to date driver. Now I do it and suddenly within 3 seconds I can view and acsess my m.2 like nothing was ever wrong with it.
