[SOLVED] M.2 Sometimes its there sometimes its not!

[xemega]

Hey,

I have Silicon Power 1TB NVMe PCIe Gen3 x4 M.2 2280 paired with my ASUS ROG Strix Z390-F Gaming.

I am using the M.2 to store games. The issue is that sometimes when i start windows the drive is there, sometimes its not showing in My PC or Disk Management.

It disappears without me doing anything different

Loose connection perhaps?

Is the M.2 fully in place?

Power down, unplug, open the case. Verify that the M.2 is fully and firmly in place.

Check all other cards, cables, RAM, and jumpers as well.

At next successful boot look in Reliability History for drive related error codes, warnings, and even informational events.
