I simply got this drive, and it has actually worked perfectly in every other system I’ve attempted it in, including my ancient Skylake testbench board.
I have an MSI PRO X670-P WIFI, which while otherwise working fine, consisting of with other NVMe drives, is showing a really unusual habits with this specific drive.
And yes, I’ve simply switched out the CPU with a brand name brand-new one and the habits is the same, so this isn’t some CPU PCIe circuitry deterioration or something.
When I install this drive, in any M. 2 slot on the board, it will work perfectly for precisely one power cycle. I can reboot, I can strike the reset switch, the drive works simply great.
Up until I shut off the device. After that has actually been done, the drive will never ever identify ever once again. Up until I physically eliminate and re-install the drive, then it works totally perfectly for precisely one power cycle.
What the eff? This screams BIOS concern to me, though MSI simply blames the SSD.
I have a working Linux/SystemRescueCD environment on the device, so if any PCIe geniuses here have any concepts, I’m all ears.
I’ve compared lspci outputs in 3 states – ‘not set up’, ‘set up and working’, and ‘set up and not working’. The ‘set up and not working’ outputs are definitely similar to the ‘not set up’ outputs. The appropriate host bridge signs up are precisely the very same in between ‘set up and working’ and ‘set up and not working’.

Does it reset to working once again if, instead of eliminating the drive, you change the PSU off/pull the plug for a while? I.e. is it the total loss of power that makes it work once again?
Or do you need to boot the computer system without the drive set up when before it begins working once again after reinstall?
If the latter it plainly indicates an UEFI bug IMO. Otherwise, it’s possibly harder to state where the issue is? In any case, bizzare, as you state!

Nope. From a not-working state, simply turning the device off, pulling the drive and plugging it back in is all that’s required to go back to working order. For one power cycle.
