Can't seem to resolve ZTIDiskPart error

I'm having trouble successfully imaging some new Latitude 5530's we recently got for our corporation. I don't often use MDT, but our main tech that does is out of the office for so I've been left trying to pick up the pieces. I'll attach images of the Deployment summary I receive every time I attempt to image a computer with our MDT USB drives, but in short, every attempt at imaging one of these computers results in "Disk(0) Can not be Formatted in ZTIDiskPart". I've attempted to add Out of Box drivers for the 5530's and I've updated the deployment share afterwards (both Optimize the boot image updating process as well as Completely regenerate the boot images options). I feel stuck as I'm not exactly in my environment here but feel I need to come up with a solution anyway. Any and all help is greatly appreciated.226829-img-8526-50.jpg

    Hi, @Evan Johnson

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Q&A forum.

    According to the error message: Removable drive, not an internal fixed drive.
    This looks like MDT was not finding the internal drive, but did find the USB drive when running DISK PART.

    Change the storage mode from RAID to AHCI in the BIOS.

    When I look I up Latitude 5530 it has an M.2 Nvme drive. The likely problem is your boot file (whether PXE or USB) doesn't have the driver to see the drive after boot. (Haven't used MDT in awhile but as I recall, after the error if you were to hit Finish it should exit to the command prompt. you can run diskpart to list disk and see for yourself which drives appear)

    You'd need add the SCSIAdapter driver. You should find many guides online describing the steps to add drivers to the boot media
