When I had to replace the MB of a similar, older system, I used a non-HP MB.
Later when I wanted to beef it up, the new MB only had 2 SATA ports and
I wanted to install more drives.  So I purchased a really cheap SATA
controller card.

I got a store-brand SSD and to my surprise the MB controller did not
see it but the cheap controller did.  Blaming the store-brand SSD,
I returned it and got a Crucial SSD.  Same problem though.  So it
was the controller, not the SSD.  MB controller worked fine with
other SATA drives, but not with the SSD.
