Second M2 ssd is not recognized if ubuntu is booted under UEFI
I accidentally installed ubuntu 6 months ago under legacy and since then I have been loading windows and ubuntu sing legacy boot. I got a new m2 ssd recently and installed in Windows and decided to more ubuntu from legacy to UEFI.
Since I installed ubuntu under UEFI, it does not recognize the second m2 SSD, however, if I boot with legacy it does recognize it.
Is there any solution for ubuntu to recognize second ssd once loading with UEFI?
Update 1:
- Here is the information of the machine:SSD drive info picture
and drive partition picture. There are two drives: drives 0 which has windows and ubuntu installed on it and the second drive which was formatted in window and has problem on ubuntu and ubuntu does not recognize it once booted under UEFI. The main drive has EFI partition at the beginning burt second drive does not have the EFI drive. Do you think that partition is causing it? - Machine is a precision 5520 with i7 cpu and nVIDIA 1200 graphic.
- I have not updated UEFI. How can I update UEFI? Any link or instruction on how to update UEFI?
- Drives are set to RAID as far as I looked at it on BIOS. There are AHCI and another option available but once I tried to change it to AHCI there was a warning saying that my computer might completely stop working so I did not do it. If I have to change to AHCI how can I do it safely?
- Windows was shut down in all cases and fast start and hibernate were disabled in windows. here is photo from windows: fast start and hibernate in windows disabled photo.

Have you updated UEFI and firmware on your SSDs? Are drives set for AHCI in UEFI, not IDE, RAID nor Intel RST? What brand/model system? IF other SSD is Windows and you have Fast start or hibernation on, partitions will not be visible. askubuntu.com/questions/843153/…

You should post your updates as additional info in your original question, not as an answer. You must change to AHCI, but have to install AHCI drivers into Windows first. Dell now lets you update UEFI using LInux but most do it directly with Dell. Dell Precision 5820 with PCI NVME SSD UEFI update & SSD firmware update ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2402254 & Dell update UEFI/BIOS from Linux dell.com/support/article/us/en/19/sln171755/…
