Hi all,
Cant seem to make my m.2 working.
its an nvme and i know on the forum there was a different version of this laptop with a similar issue.
my models m.2 slot only has 2 areas for pins to fit into?
so surely this would support nvme?
but i cant get it recognized on bios and there is no option for a legacy boot. (i have dissabled fast boot and still nothing)

NVMe slots and SATA slots look same in laptops, when you insert a M.2 SATA SSD the pins corresponding to second gap in the M.2 SATA SSD will be dormant.

Hi,
Unfortunately, your model doesn't support M.2 NVMe SSDs, you can only use a M.2 SATA SSD like Samsung 860 Evo.
