Hi,

 

I'm trying unRaid 6.7.2

my machine spec
CPU : i7-4790k

MB : Z97 Maximus VII Formula
Ram : 4x8GB DDR3 2400MHz
VGA : None

 

I'm trying to add new NVME drive to be use as cache disk but having trouble that the new drive isn't showing in unassigned devices at all

 

I tried checking in BIOS and BIOS is detecting the drive.

Samsung 970 EVO Plus is mounting on ORICO m2 to PCIE x4 adapter on PCIE 1 or 2 (Tried both same result)

I think the NVME controller is found by unRaid but i'm not sure why the drive isn't showing in "MAIN"

IOMMU group 1:[8086:0c01] 00:01.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation Xeon E3-1200 v3/4th Gen Core Processor PCI Express x16 Controller (rev 06)

[144d:a808] 01:00.0 Non-Volatile memory controller: Samsung Electronics Co Ltd NVMe SSD Controller SM981/PM981

Any guide?

Device is not initializing correctly:

 

Sep 20 00:49:42 MainCondo kernel: nvme nvme0: controller is down; will reset: CSTS=0xffffffff, PCI_STATUS=0x10
Sep 20 00:49:42 MainCondo kernel: nvme 0000:01:00.0: enabling device (0000 -> 0002)
Sep 20 00:49:42 MainCondo kernel: nvme nvme0: Removing after probe failure status: -19
Sep 20 00:49:42 MainCondo kernel: nvme nvme0: failed to set APST feature (-19)

 

Can't tell if it's the board or the NVMe device, try in in another board if possible.

I think it might be that the adapter is bad,
i tried the adapter on different board and having similar result. sometimes it's seeing drive in windows,
sometimes just 0byte drive but i can't initialize it or anything.

Remove the adapter and M2 working fine in the m2 slot on z390 taichi mobo

The adapter being return now, probably go get Asus hyper m.2 adapter instead.

Still can't see why the board which basically do nothing other then re wiring the PCIE to M2 can be fail.

Thank you for your response.
