After restart my 1 T.B. Samsung 980 NVME SSD is not detected by BIOS. I have to completely power of the computer wait for 5 seconds and then restart my PC after which my SSD is detected.
My Windows operating system is located in this Samsung 980 NVME SSD is my primary boot device.

My BIOS Version is F56a.
Motherboard model number Gigabyte A320M-S2H Rev. 2.

I've kept the panel of my cabinet open. So air flow should not be a problem.

The problem starts with 2-3 minutes after boot up.
