oh a 2.5" sata ssd. by right it should run with no issues.

make sure the interposer is connected properly to the ssd, and the connection to the mobo is secured properly. if it's still not working, test the ssd on another computer to see if it works. there should be no need to change anything in the bios, but just in case, check if the sata operations is set to ahci mode. (normally this is not necessary, because ahci is just a subset of raid)
