Hi,
I have a Supermicro X10SRi-F, 2780v4, with the ASUS Hyper M.2 X16 PCIe 4.0 X4 with two NVMe drives (Samsung 983 + Samsung 970EVO). I have the Samsung 970EVO passed through to VM and works flawlessly. However i cannot get the Samsung 983 NVMe drive to pass through.
I have set PCIE bifurcation in BIOS, have ACS control on, I see both drives correctly in BIOS and can see them both in ESXi.
However, and here is the issue, I can passthrough the Samsun970EVO without any issues (passthrough "Active"), however the Samsung 983 is stuck (Passthrough "Enabled / Needs reboot"). I can create datastore on the Samsung 983 without any issue, copy data to it and run VMs of it. Through some googling I had arrived at the following tip (Enable PCI Passthrough for Intel 82575GB NIC in VMWare ESXi) to disable ACS checking in ESXI, even though I have ACS on in BIOS, but even changing this in ESXi has no impact and the drive is still stuck on "enabled/needs reboot". Multiple reboots have not helped.
I've read that 7.0.3 is picky with drives, however I would expect the drive either not work at all, but only failling pass through seems a bit odd.
Thanks for any suggestions!
