Hello all,
System:
Gigabyte: MD70-HB0
2* Intel E5-2620v3 (for testing)
4*16GB ECC RAM
Crucial BX500 240gb SSD
WD nvme 250gb Blue (in pcie-m.2 adapter)


I am having problems with the nvme drive. Sometimes it shows in the BIOS, i have even had windows installed and running from it.
but then after a reboot is disappears, then sometimes it comes back, sometimes not.

is there a setting in the bios i have missed?

This is very theoretical so take it with a grain of salt.

I doubt there is anything to modify in the BIOS. If the OS can see the drive at any point your settings should be correct. I would double check your SATA configuration and make sure they are set to AHCI.

Hopefully you have a second m.2 drive you could test with or a second board you could test that drive in.
