No Drives Can Be Found During Windows 10/11 Installation

Intel 11th (Tiger Lake), 12th (Alder Lake), and 13th (Raptor Lake) generation processors use Intel Volume Management Device (VMD) technology to improve storage performance and power efficiency. On systems with VMD enabled by default (which is often not configurable in BIOS/UEFI), the Windows 10/11 retail installer cannot detect NVMe drives unless the Intel Rapid Storage Technology (IRST) driver is manually loaded during installation.
