M2 drive in M2A_CPU slot on a Gigabyte Gaming x (DDR4).
I gave up and had to move this drive to another slot but now not certain if I have a faulty motherboard.
Basically the drive only sometimes showed up in windows.
A reset in BIOS was occasionally necessary to get it back but more often than not just a system restart (changing nothing) would work.
It could show up in BIOS but on entering windows it might not be there.
If it wasn't detected in BIOS it was (not surprisingly) never detected in windows.
Anyone else had this issue issue?
As said changing slot has worked (so far) but don't want to keep a motherboard that could be faulty so still need to figure out what the issue has been.
(typing this I am wondering if it could have been seated incorrectly but is that even possible, it certainly looked fine).
