What about under Imaging Device? If it's not there I would boot into the firmware menu and verify the device is enabled, or if there is a hardware switch or keyboard combo to disable it make sure it's enabled.
The only reasons it would not show in device manager is if it was disabled or malfunctioning at the hardware level
