Under bios I see my WDS100T3X3C recognised under NVME. He sees the right size. How do I make it in the boot menu?
You are on the right track. That is, the NVMe drive is ready to be used by the OS installer to install Operating System on to it. On the other hand, the UEFI (the new BIOS) is very smart, It will not show any drive/partition in the selection, if that drive/partition is not bootable. So, please be patient. Install the OS first, during the installtion, the installer will ask where the OS will reside (such as onto NVMe). After a "successful" OS installation, upon reboot, the boot selection menu will show the newly installed OS.

Hello, I bought a Transcend TS1TMTE220S and I cloned my Ubuntu 20.04 LTS from my previous Sata SSD Samsung EVO something using this page: https://www.linux.com/training-tutorials/clone-your-ubuntu-installation-new-hard-disk/ and it worked. sudo smartctl -d nvme -i /dev/nvme0n1 smartctl 7.1 2019-12-30 r5022 [x86_64-linux-5.4.0-39-generic] (local build) Copyright (C) 2002-19, Bruce Allen, Christian Franke, www.smartmontools.org === START OF INFORMATION SECTION === Model Number: TS1TMTE220S Serial Number: F858620045 Firmware Version: 42B4SAUA PCI Vendor/Subsystem ID: 0x126f IEEE OUI Identifier: 0x000000 Controller ID: 1 Number of Namespaces: 1 Namespace 1 Size/Capacity: 1 024 209 543 168 [1,02 TB] Namespace 1 Utilization: 1 000 149 762 048 [1,00 TB] Namespace 1 Formatted LBA Size: 512 Local Time is: Fri Jul 3 23:25:11 2020 CEST mo@mo-C40:~$ sudo smartctl -A /dev/nvme0n1 [sudo] Mot de passe de mo : smartctl 7.1 2019-12-30 r5022 [x86_64-linux-5.4.0-39-generic] (local build) Copyright (C) 2002-19, Bruce Allen, Christian Franke, www.smartmontools.org === START OF SMART DATA SECTION === SMART/Health Information (NVMe Log 0x02) Critical Warning: 0x00 Temperature: 44 Celsius Available Spare: 100% Available Spare Threshold: 10% Percentage Used: 0% Data Units Read: 66 969 [34,2 GB] Data Units Written: 1 973 458 [1,01 TB] Host Read Commands: 273 518 Host Write Commands: 7 731 639 Controller Busy Time: 35 Power Cycles: 10 Power On Hours: 3 Unsafe Shutdowns: 2 Media and Data Integrity Errors: 0 Error Information Log Entries: 0 Warning Comp.

Hello! Any experience with Patriot 1TB M.2 PCIe NVMe Viper VPN100? In my case it causes Bolt to power off once in a while. Usually once in 1-2 days. What could be the cause? Power supply is 90W Power Jack and SSD drive works well with other devices.
General info for many NVMe SSDs: These NVMe devices generate tremendous amount of heat. Adding a heatsink (heat spreader) and keep it cool is a must.
Have you disabled the eMMC drive in Windows Device Manager? If not this can cause unexpected crashes in Windows, particularly when the system is idle.
Patriot VPN100 comes with own heatsink. I also monitored drive temperature and it was always normal during shut downs. I use Ubuntu 20.04, do I have to set up anything special? I use the onboard eMMC as the system drive and NVMe SSD as an additional drive.
Plugged in a WD-black 1TB NVMe drive and seems to be working well. BIOS sees it just fine. Installed void linux, UEFI style. lspci identifies it as: Sandisk Corp WD Black 2019/PC SN750
Where do I find out how to do what you did? I have the same exact drive as the guy who started this whole thread and so it's in the NVMe slot. I have the Bolt V8. Thanks for any help you can give me!
