Hello Viberq,

We always recommend making sure that you're running the latest BIOS version and Chipset drivers for your motherboard. Additionally, you may try to remove the SSD and install it again, or test it in another system.

If after this troubleshooting the SSD is still not being detected in your BIOS, you may have a defective unit in your hands. For a replacement during the initial 30 days of purchase, you can contact your place of purchase. After the initial 30 days the warranty is handled by http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/contact-support.html Intel® Customer Support.

Hi,

I have done all above as you have said, but with no success.

I may have to return it. test another one and hopefully it will work better.

How come there is so many problems with these M2 ssd disks?

Thanks for the feedback.

Best regards,

Hello Viberq,

Most of the issues we see with these drives are simple compatibility issues (M.2 ports that only support SATA and not NVMe*, use older generation NVMe*, and so on).We're confident that once you receive your replacement, you will not experience further issues.Best regards,Carlos A.
