Question M.2 SSD not recognized anymore ?

[pekodam]

Hey, I just booted up my PC for the first time today and it just restarted and gave me a BSOD WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR, then would post with a message saying to choose a boot option. I go into the BIOS to check the boot priorities to see my cloned Sabrent SSD no longer being recognized.
Any suggestions?

EDIT: I tried plugging it back in a different outlet in my house and it worked fine, went back to it's original spot, worked for a good 20 mins while I was updating drivers, then was trying to do Defender scan, then BSOD WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR again. I will try to reseat the M.2

Specs:
MSI B450 Gaming Plus Max
G.Skill Ripjaws V DDR4 3600 16 gb
Ryzen 5 3600
EVGA 650 B5 80+ Bronze
MSI GTX 1660 Super

How old is the PSU?

Original to build, new, refurbished, used? History of heavy use for gaming or video editing?

At the next successful boot immediately look in Reliability History/Monitor.

Any error codes, warnings, or even informational events being captured just before or at the times of the BSODs or other problems?

It’s an Original to build PSU, been used since covid so about 3 years of use by now with heavy use for gaming. Haven’t been able to get it to boot at all since it collapsed after downloading drivers and windows updates.

PSU a likely culprit.

Do you have another known working PSU that can be swapped in?

(Remember, if modular, use only the cables that came with the swapped in PSU.)

Do you have a multi-meter and know how to use it? Or know someone who does?

Not a full test because the PSU is not under load. However, any voltages out of tolerance would indicate a failed/faltering PSU.

M.2 died, replaced it with a Samsung 970 Pro. Thankfully saved my pictures and videos prior but will look into saving the miniscule amount of things on it.
