Mainboard Mit M2 Slot
M.2 is very flexible and is widely used as an option for additional storage on the today laptop’s motherboards. It can vary in its size – at this point, commercially available are 30mm, 42mm, 60mm, 80mm, and 110mm lengths, which are commonly expressed like ‘2230’ (22m wide, 30mm long), ‘2242’ (22m wide, 42mm long), etc. Why buy a motherboard with only one M.2 slot when you get one with three of them?

Mainboard Mit M2 Slot Machine
I just finished building my first gaming pc and it ran perfectly for the first week. Yesterday after work I got home and turned it on and it would not boot into windows and only boot to bios (MSI B450M Pro-VDH motherboard). After checking the bios menu it showed that my new Crucial MX500 M.2 SSD was not connected. I shut it down, removed graphics card (as the M.2 slot is just behind it) and unscrewed it and pulled it out, then replaced everything and powered it back on ( I tried this twice). Nothing still, just booted into bios and showing as nothing connected. This is weird because, just the night before I had been running the machine and playing games and now today (yesterday) would not boot? I fully powered it down the night before as I normally would any computer.
My question is this. How do I know if it's my M.2 SSD that's bad, or if it's the M.2 slot on the motherboard that is bad? Also, How would I go about erasing the data on the M.2 before returning for a refund/exchange if it's bad?
Thanks in advanced, and new member by the way
