M.2 problem

Hi,

When I install my 'M.2' my other HDDs disappear from the bios and the system, if I remove reappears.
Any recomendation?

Details:
- Samsung 850 Evo Series mznln500. 500 Gb M. 2
- Gigabyte Z97MX-Gaming 5 divers
- also I have a ssd and hdd
- Bios version F2


Sorry for my english.
Thanks

That is right you will lose two sata ports 4/5. So the sata ports you can use is 0,1,2, & 3 with a M2 Drive. This is some what true with any board out there with a M2 port.

M.2, SATA Express, and SATA3 4/5 connectors can only be used one at a time. The SATA3 4/5
connectors will become unavailable when an M.2 SSD is installed.
