Within Disk Utility click on "View" and select "Show All Devices" so that the physical drive appears in the left pane of Disk Utility.


If this does not work, then what is the exact model of your laptop? You can get this information by entering your serial number here or here. Also what version of macOS was on the old drive?


What make & model of SSD did you purchase?
