Laptop: HP 15M-EE0023DX
Just upgraded HD to an HP EX950 nvme M.2. Many hours of troubleshooting later, I've discovered the laptop only detects the HD if left UNSCREWED. This makes zero sense to me, but confirmed it several times, screwing it in where its no longer detected, then unscrewing it again and its detected. I've adjusted the seating so many times, angled, etc. Literally the only way the ssd can get detected if its unscrewed.
The original drive is NVMe M.2 but has 2 notches (I think this is an M/B key), and when installed it lies flat without that 20 degree spring the other drive has. This original works normally when screwed, I suspect it has something to do with the issue.
Thoughts?
