Hey guys, this WD SN850 is being a real problem and I just cannot figure out what is wrong with it. I assembled my pc a couple of weeks ago.

Config:
Motherboard: MSI MPG X570 Gaming Plus
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5600x
GPU: MSI Ventus 3060ti
RAM Corsair Vengeance 2x8Gb 3600mhz.
Memory: WD black NVME SN850 1TB

When I first started up the PC, it would not detect the NVME drive on a cold boot. The drive is connected to the M2_1 slot. On closing the bios it would detect the drive.
I downloaded the Western digital dashboard and updated the drive to the latest firrmware. And now it just refuses to be detected in the M2_1 slot and only reads in the M2_2 slot.

I've reinstalled the BIOS on the motherboard thinking that might be the issue and that didn't do anything. I checked the motherboard compatibility and it says that the SN850 should work in the M2_1 with Gen4.

Any help would be appreciated.

EDIT: Apologies for posting this in memory insteady of storage. Would apprecite it if it could be bumped to storage.
