I have a similar error, but I think the SSD is not being recognized.

and I have removed and reinstalled the SSD. It only boots to the bios screen with a brief statement that the boot device was not found.

Terredw Hi there,

When you turn on the PC, what error do you have ?
If you got BSOD, but the SSD cannot be recogized in the BIOS, it might indicates that the SSD has failed.
You need to get a new SSD.

I get that NO MEDIA DETECTED, which is the SSD. It started 6 months after purchase. Worked sometimes and now seems to be dead.

Is there a specification for the SSD?

How do I get the copy of Windows reinstalled since there is no backup or software/documentation sent with the device initially?

Hi there, you can buy a SATA III M.2 SSD.

I installed a new NVMe SSD PCIe M.2 2280 @ 1 TB

I did as instructed above. Now, here is the error I am getting after booting on the USB drive

I also just tried installing a new copy of Windows from a USB I created and it does not see the new SSD I installed.

What boot sequence do I need? Currently, it is set at
1 - PCIe GBE Family Controler
2 - USB
3 - NVME
4 - CD/DVD
5 - Hard Disk

Terredw Hi there,
how did you solve it , replace the new SSD or something else ?

Terredw

I figured out the US59 would not accept an NVMe SSD, so I purchased a different 1 TB non-NVMe SSD. It worked fine, including installing Windows 11 from the image in the above link.
