M.2 / board issue
M.2 / board issue
Hey! Your issue seems related to the M.2 SSD or the motherboard. The BIOS didn’t show your main drive, and after turning off the PSU it worked again, which suggests a power or detection problem. You might want to check the SSD connection and see if it boots normally without the drive. For the motherboard, look for any error lights or unusual noises when you power it up. Start by testing the SSD in another slot or with a different controller to rule out hardware issues.
is your equipment recently replaced? begin an rma procedure with your supplier. if there are additional ports on the device, try the nvme there to verify functionality. you may need to experiment on a different motherboard to accurately identify the issue. alternatively, test other m2n nvme drives in that slot. if the problem persists, your nvme is likely faulty. if the fault lies with your board or cpu, check the pcie interface slot; if it's in the chipset slot, your motherboard may be defective.
Use CristalDiskInfo to check for drive faults. If none are found, test the drive on another machine to confirm functionality.
