I can try but it's installed in the M.2 Socket 3 (M2A_CPU) that's integrated in the CPU

Any firmware update for the m2 ?

Randoms are exactly what can be expected.
But sequentials are like it would be in PCIe x2 mode.
Maybe tool of Hynix could tell something.

Also 500GB model has own firmware:

Firmware is up to date. But yes, it's stuck in PCIe 3.0 x2 mode...

Tried changing PCIEX16 Bifurcation in the BIOS but still the same.

Fixed...

Correct transfer mode

Cleared CMOS & "re-sat" the NVMe M.2 SSD & seems to have fixed it.
