If the information you have presented is correct, there is no
way to use the SSD. There is no evidence that it exists.
If the kernel can recognize it and it is attached, it will be in
cat /proc/partitions
Here is what my NVME Solid State drive partitions look like:
cat /proc/partitions
major minor #blocks name
259 0 500107608 nvme0n1
259 1 257007 nvme0n1p1
259 2 2097152 nvme0n1p2
259 3 16793600 nvme0n1p3
259 4 480959815 nvme0n1p4
What is it that you are trying to mount?
and
ls -al /dev/disk/by-id/
Since you can't see it there, it is not usable.
