note: as also mentioned in the video this project is based off of, command required in config.txt to activate the peripheral.

solution: must activate the PCIe x1 slot on the raspberry pi in the config files. can be completed by pasting:

sudo nano /boot/firmware/config.txt to enter the config file with necessary permissions
dtparam=pciex1 at the bottom of the file to activate the PCIe slot
ctrl+x to exit file, y to confirm, enter to save with same name and path

test: solution can be tested to confirm if the PCIe device is now readable by using lspci to get a detailed output of the PCIe devices & you can follow this up with lsblk (checks the drives) if you have sata ssds plugged in already.
