ASUS IMPACT VIII & Intel 750 1.2 Tb Drive Not Detected

[RRand2]

I'm using the U.2 connector on the Maximus Impact to connect a 750 1.2 Tb SSDPE2MW012T4R5

ASUS Device report indicates that they support SSD DC 750 Series-400GB. I was trying to consolidate all my storage into one device.

When the machine opens bios the drive is not recognized. When I boot to win10, it finds the driver that I downloaded from intel but says it's not compatible with my hardware.

This is my last stab before having to return this beautiful drive.

Can this be made to work? Am I missing something? why would this board support the 400GB but not the 1.2Tb?

Any insights would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

Some Additional Info: CMS is enabled and primary boot option is set to UEFI only.
