I appreciate your diligence Raju. First, you work for Asus on this forum - an observation and not a comment. As an Asus employee, you are able to see what my computer is and its components from my product registration, including what SSD is in my computer and what Controller Type/Interface that is set for. But, I have attached screen shots of both by SSD and my HDD drives. I note that it is my HDD that is Port 0. I mention Port as my desktop boots from an SSD on Port 1 (with HDD on Port 2), but when I have a removable HDD plugged into Port 0 ( used for backup) at startup, I am unable to boot as the OS defaults to Port 0.

As for recognizing and installing, I am unable to install Opensuse and Fedora, but I am also unable to install Win10_20H2_v2. In case it was a problem with my USB flashdrives, I purchased new ones and opened the Win10 iso onto it. That new Win10 USB flashdrive could accesss repair functions but when I attempted to install fresh, the USB flashdrive was not recognized (???) and attempted to reformat the flashdrive.

I do need to get this SSD up and running or have it replaced with 1 TB SSD that can be accessed. Asus has good products. My 2012 purchase of a 1 TB HDD/AMD A6 laptop is still in use for media. So, I am not upset - but I do need to get this laptop up and running to replace my HP Envy.

Sorry you miss understood. I am not working for asus.
I am normal laptop user with little knowledge about windows OS.
I am a teacher and working in govt college.
form your screenshots , your SSD belongs to NVMe controller and it was enabled in BIOS too.
So I have doubt NVMe SSD might not deducted, so kindly post your query in fedora community forum and also in opensuse forum.
