I'm setting up a new PC with a B450 gaming plus Max board and a 5600X CPU. The Spatzium M450 1TB drive isn't showing up properly on my system, even though it worked fine in another machine. Now it appears when I connect it again, but after the PC has been off for some time, it refuses to connect. Could you help figure out why?

Checked if the item appears in Windows Disk Manager; likely requires a drive letter if a volume is listed. If missing from BIOS, updating the BIOS is advised.

The drive is identified properly even though it sometimes fails. Consider adjusting your sleep configurations or power management settings, and disable Windows' ability to power off the SSD to conserve energy. Another approach is to disable the fastboot feature in Windows, which switches to hibernation rather than a full shutdown. This allows Windows to load peripherals from their last saved state upon startup. If these steps don’t work, you might need to wipe the SSD partitions and reinstall Windows directly on it.

Thanks for reaching out. I tried the method earlier but it didn’t succeed. I also realized I can’t rely on that technique now, which means I’m unable to restart Windows properly.

I've already set up Windows on it and saved a few games, so everything is ready. The BIOS has also been updated.
