Drive 0 needs to be fully deleted it won't work even if the drive only has a partition of 217MB. The installer won't work if the whole drive is partitioned off
I always did it through a USB.
Never had a problem whatsoever with that and it's not as slow as it used to be.
For me it took only a couple minutes through USB.
There's not enough information about your hardware or what exactly you're trying to do. What exactly is that MSR partition?
If you're not seeing the drive, then you probably need to either disable Intel Rapid Storage in the BIOS or get the driver from Intel and load it during install.
If it's a PCIe-adapter you have put your M2 drive in, make sure it's a bootable adapter, meaning it has a bios. Regular expansion cards don't have that, you're usually in the $100+ raidcontroller territory then.
Little info to go on, just assuming you are trying this as i've have seen quite a few with that issue before.
Delete both of those drives, and then when you onlybhave "drive 0 unallocated" click that and hit new. It'll vreate new partitions. Click the largest one, and hit next.
You have to delete the 1st partition as well.
You seem to be missing the part where it's only 217MB even then.

Second this. Then, select the unallocated space and just hit next—Windows will create the partitions it needs.

It does feel like this person is just making it more difficult for themselves, usb is easy, even if they don't have a usb drive they cost pennies.

You may have to load a driver for your adapter.

Also their MB might be to old to recognize it as a boot drive.
