Windows 11 doesn’t recognize an m.2 NVMe in a pcie slot after upgrade
Hey all, Bought a new HP Omen 30L-1139 it has expansion slots for upto 3 m.2 SSDs. I swapped out the 2 SSDs from my old computer to the new one and everything worked as it should. I had this work...
Looks I have a similar issue on my Dell T7820. The nvme in the flexbay is not available under Windows 11. I have excluded BIOS problems since the device works under windows 7.
The device manager indicates under "other devices" that there is no raid driver installed. Dell online diagnostics comes to the same conclusion and proposes a driver to install. When I do so, the drive in the flexbay is immediately accessible and works fine until shutdown. During restart a bluescreen indicates that the driver is not working and only getting back to the last restauration point allows me to run windows again in the above described state with no access to the nvme drive in the flexbay.
This is what I learned up to now.
The question for me is now, where to get a driver which is working under windows 11.
Dell will you come up with one, which is in turn passing microsoft requirements and will be included automatically in winfows update ?
For the time being windows 11 keeps telling me there is no raid driver for the nvme in a Dell T7820 flexbay.

Typo in the begining of my post: the device works under "windows 10" .
