Any hint what to do when a M2 SSD is not detected at all?
When i change to AHCI instead of RAID, Windows 10 crashes...
Does your Notebook support AHCI and then if it does, Would that be in NVME mode or SATA mode, ensure you have the correct M.2 SSD to start with.
You should be able to Clone your original drive to your new SSD. I recommend
Free Macrium Reflect. Once Reflect is installed Create a Recovery USB. Boot to the MR Recovery USB from there you should be able to Clone old drive to "New RAW SSD" I put RAW meaning that the SSD is as it came from the factory Clean with nothing but Unallocated Space uninitialized no format. That will work regardless of system your using NVME or SATA During the set up for the Clone adjust your C partition to fit the new SSD larger or Smaller which ever way you are going. MR will do the rest.
Yes when switching from RAID to AHCI, you will also have to Clean install Windows and all that goes along with that New OS Install.
There is a process where you create a C: Partition Image.
Reinstall Windows in AHCI mode.
"This is how you set up all the correct partitions for UEFI and create your correct boot manager."
Then overwrite the New C: Partition with the Image you created before you started this.
"This puts you back where you were with windows and Programs" all running in AHCI
