chipmaster 1 Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 I have an Asrock B450M Pro4 motherboard with a Ryzen 5 2600 cpu in it. The board sees the NVME on boot, but the NVME drives is not detected in Unraid. I'm currently running Unraid 6.9.0-rc2. I also tried 6.8.3 & it also didn't detect the drive. Any help is appreciated Quote Link to post

chipmaster 1 Posted January 20 Author Share Posted January 20 I figured it out. I booted Unraid in UEFI mode and the NVME was detected. If I boot in BIOS mode the drive is detected but not available to be used for cache. 1 Quote Link to post
JorgeB 3675 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 It should also work with CSM boot, but it's failing to initialize: Jan 19 05:21:06 Tower kernel: nvme nvme0: I/O 25 QID 0 timeout, disable controller Jan 19 05:21:06 Tower kernel: nvme nvme0: Device shutdown incomplete; abort shutdown Jan 19 05:21:06 Tower kernel: nvme nvme0: Removing after probe failure status: -4 Quote Link to post
chipmaster 1 Posted January 20 Author Share Posted January 20 I found that if booting unraid in Bios mode the board detects the drive but Unraid doesn't. If booting Unraid in Uefi mode everything works fine & it detects everything Quote Link to post
JorgeB 3675 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Like mentioned it's not a question of being detected, it's being detected but it fails to initialize, NVMe also work using legacy boot, it could be a board issue, possibly just a BIOS issue, BIOS update might help. Quote Link to post
chipmaster 1 Posted January 20 Author Share Posted January 20 The board has the latest bios update on it. If Unraid doesn’t boot in Uefi mode the nvme fails to initialize Quote Link to post
JorgeB 3675 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Correct, but it's not an Unraid problem, I've had servers booting non UEFI with NVMe devices without issues, but if with UEFI works just boot with that. Quote Link to post
chipmaster 1 Posted January 20 Author Share Posted January 20 I have to check why it doesn’t work with a non uefi boot Quote Link to post
