I just bought a Gigabyte Brix GB-BPCE-3455 (Intel Celeron J3455.

I can add RAM and USB drives. That is recognized by the BIOS, but I can not get it to recognize my Samsung 850 PRO SSD. It simply ignore it (not recognized in BIOS).

I tried to SSD in another machine (also AMI BIOS). There it works fine, and I can install it with whatever OS I want.

What do I do wrong?

Answer

What size is the ssd?did you tried with a different brand/size? Try with a basic 2.5" hdd to see if the mainboard is the problem. Also the cable ? The brix is very picky with the ram and ssd types. I had issues with 1tb ssd and ddr3 which was 1.5v instead of 1.35v, it didn't boot at all.
