X370 taichi m.2 ssd boot problem

[zjwenker]

So i recently finished my ryzen based pc build.

After installing windows 10 with a usb stick everything seemed fine but after a while when i tried to boot the computer the message would pop upp that there was no boot drive.

So after checking the bios my samsung 960 evo was no where to be found.

After rebooting the computer 5-20 times average it would boot as if there was no problem.

 

The things ive already tried to fix it:

- reinstalling windows

- upgrading the firmware of the samsung 960 evo

- installing the driver of the samsung 960 evo

- cmos reset, seems to help the problem for 1 boot then returns to the same problem.

 

My specs are :

 

Motherboard: Asrock X370 taichi Bios 2.0

processor: ryzen 1700

RAM: Trident Z RGB F4-3200C16D-16GTZR

Videocard: Sapphire RX 580 nitro LE

Storage; samsung 960 evo nvme and samsung 850 ssd

 

Any one have any idea what the problem could be?

These M.2 are known to fail.  I've had two fail myself (both after about 2 - 10 hours of use).   If you cannot see the drive in the UEFI/BIOS at all, then return it for replacement.

does the 850 show up in the UEFI and/or install OS?

Have you overclocked using bclk?

It does when i get it to boot, but the problem is the 960 evo sometimes not showing up

It sometimes shows without a problem and boots perfectly fine, but most of the times it doesnt work.

then you'd need to open a support case with ASRock and/or Samsung.

The 960 is the problem not the 850
