I purchased a new SSD, the Crucial P310 2280 PCIe Gen4. Now I’m facing problems with my PC not displaying a picture and failing to read the C4 code on my motherboard (Z390 Aorus Ultra). After some research, I’m unsure if these components work together. My question is: should I upgrade to a newer system, replace the SSD with a compatible one, or try a workaround? Thank you.

Here’s the full specification you provided, along with an explanation of your choices.

The rest of your spec includes details about additional connected drives and the reasoning behind keeping the text concise. You intentionally made the text smaller to streamline communication, likely for clarity or formatting purposes.

Gen4 drive support appears inconsistent across older motherboards. I've experienced this firsthand—purchased a Gen4 card, but my X99 board doesn't recognize it. The online advice suggests it involves a handshake process, which I thought would resolve compatibility problems smoothly. In reality, it hasn't worked for me. For comparison, Gen3 cards have been fine without issues. A BIOS update could potentially help, though it didn't resolve my situation.

Do you have an additional M.2 port ready to use?

No problem at all, just checking if the same issue occurs when the drive is taken out.

A C4 error indicates a DRAM problem, meaning the system can't detect or use the RAM properly. This might suggest faulty RAM or a motherboard issue.

Multiple techniques exist such as pop-up alerts, Device Manager, and (BSOD) among others, all of which show error codes.
