Hi everyone. Today my pc froze as soon as I turned it on, so I went to the Bios and the drive wasn't there annymore. It's a silicon power nvme m.2 1tb almost new (bought it in december). My motherboard's (asus tuf gaming b550-plus) boot led stayed on the whole time, so I asumed i'ts was a problem with Windows, but when I tried to install it again trough a usb flash, it didn't work, it doesn't even appear the windows installer interface, it justs keeps loading and nothing happens. Right now I'm using a ssd to run windows but i can't plug the nvme m.2 again to make it run at least as a secondary unit because the pc just keeps loading and doesn't run windws (and yes, i have the ssd as a primary boot option). Is it a way to check the nvme? I really want to know if its broken or just a bad configuration?



Sorry for my bad english, this isn't my native language.

Try reseating the m.2 in the slot.
If no help try the other m.2 slot.

Already tried the other slot and nothing happens.

About the reseating, can i do that trough bios? As I said before, if i have the nvme conected, the pc doesn't boot, even if i have windows installed in the ssd. The only way i can use the pc is having only the ssd and not the nvme. I think it's just broken.

Reseating is just taking it out of the slot and putting in back in the slot.
This is just a test to see if there is a bad connection.

Do you have another pc you can plug the m.2 into or another m.2 you can
plug into your pc?

Oh, then yes, I reseated that thing like 4 times.
Tommorow i'll borrow a pc from a friend so I guess that'll be the final test.
Thanks all for yours answers.
