That's...odd. Are you sure the system isn't identifying the drive as a Windows To Go drive? I had a workstation where that bit got flipped and it couldn't upgrade at all. A single change to the registry bit fixed it (telling the OS is wasn't W2G).
I've actually never seen an SATA (or PCIe, for that matter) drive with a "driver" except for the add-on bull**** that gets bundled with Intel Optane cached drives. The only place I'm used to them is for SAS and RAID interfaces that require special drivers to load before boot.
OTOH, not getting Windows upgrades is often more of a feature than a bug, seeing as you can't turn them off anymore, and not all of them are useful.
Between PNY, Crucial, WD, SK Hynix and Samsung all price/performance ratios should be covered to buy anything else.

I'll take one at that price. You'll never notice the speed difference anyway I'd imagine for your average user with a gaming PC.
