As this is a new build (all components are newly bought), the issue started right away. When the installation process finishes, the SSD gets "ejected" again.Ģ. During the installation process of the RST driver, the SSD becomes visible in Windows and I can access it. The Intel RST driver obviously has an effect on the secondary NVME SSD.
It doesn't seem to be a hardware failure, as I can force the drive to become active for a short while (by installing the RST driver). If necessary, I can also make a video of the driver installation, which shows the timeframe the drive is available and the notification of Windows 11 that a new hardware component is detected.Ĭould you please assist? I'm very confused about this behaviour. Process command line: C:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository\iastorvd.inf_amd64_815480839574a92b\RstMwService.exe" -> this seems important, but I'm not able to determine what this exactly means. During the Intel RST driver installation, the Windows Event Viewer generates the following warning: "The application \Device\HarddiskVolume3\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository\iastorvd.inf_amd64_815480839574a92b\RstMwService.exe with process id 3560 stopped the removal or ejection for the device PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_467F&SUBSYS_86941043&REV_00\3&11583659&0&70. During that time I managed to update the firmware of both drives, but shortly after the secondary drive was ejected again. One time, after switching the drives in the motherboard M2 slots, the secondary drive (connected to chipset) was actually active for a short while. I've also run self tests and used Samsung Magician for checking the health and performance.
I've switched the drives multiple times and installed Windows on both of them. Both NVME SSD are technically working correctly. Intel_RST_Driver_Software_V19._WIN10_WIN11_64-bit -> downloaded from ASUS (Z690-I) Product Support page SATA SSD: Samsung SSD 870 QVO 4TB -> not relevant here, but added for completeness NVME SSD #2: Samsung SSD 980 PRO 2TB -> connected to Chipset -> problem drive NVME SSD #1: Samsung SSD 980 PRO 2TB -> connected to CPU, boot drive Motherboard: ASUS ROG STRIX Z690-I GAMING WIFIĬPU: 12th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-12600K When the RST driver installation finishes, even before reboot, the drive is ejected again and unavailable in Disk Management again. During that time I can copy files to it and the drive operates as normal. The weird thing is: when installing the Intel RST driver, at around 22% into the process, the secondary NVME SSD is detected by Windows 11 (a notification appears) and useable for a little while. The drive is detected and visible in the BIOS, but does not show in Windows (or only for a very limited time). I recently purchased an Alder Lake system, but have problems with enabling the secondary NVME SSD (Samsung 980 PRO 2TB) in Windows 11.
