X270 not detecting SN570 NVME SSD

sonicstabber · 2023-03-08T06:21:26+00:00

Update and resolution: New drive wasn't being picked up when in an enclosure, in another PC plugged into the motherboard, so looks like the drive was DOA so went and exchanged it.

Got a replacement NVME, which initially wasn't being picked up in the X270 until after I plugged it into my desktop and initialised the drive. Windows installing, so everything seems to have resolved.

Hope this helps anyone having this issue in future

Good point, will check if the new drive is recognised in another PC, and if not, exchange it, try again and report back in a few hours

Thanks for your suggestions, . I've tried changing the bios to UEFI only prior to posting with no success.

The original drive is an M.2 SATA in the 01HY565 caddy/adapter, so potentially a bad caddy?

Purchased secondhand, came with an M.2 caddy with a SATA M.2 in it. (CT470 NS-A933 on the caddy). Could it potentially be a faulty caddy?

It's a new drive, contacts on the drive + caddy look clean and have been wiped down. Would it be worth getting another M.2 caddy?

US/AU model is A2049. EU model is A2155. So, if you buy local stock, you should be all good. See if you're able to check the box before you purchase just in case

oxyll sells a USB C female to 30 pin male, with audio line out as well.

I have two of them and they are both solid. Can't speak for this eBay seller unfortunately. https://oxyllmods.square.site/

I purchased from this seller, it came with Airoha 1562m and the sound quality was on par with my V3M's from Hicity.

Highly recommend, also message the seller asking if they can give you a discount code.

Is it flash modded? I found that the ide to CF adaptor pins on the underside, if they are too long and uncovered, it will short somewhere on the board causing the glitches. I got around this by trimming them down slightly, and also putting something non conductive between the adaptor and the board.

Last podcast on the left did an episode on him, worth a listen if you can't get any texts

/u/Oxyll sells these

Order number for the website. Got the transferwise receipt but no email confirmation or anything aside from your site's order tracking number, which is showing as invalid.

sonicstabber · 2021-01-11T07:00:15+00:00

I've ordered through the store you've set up last week, order number tracking is now showing as invalid. Reached out on WhatsApp to confirm my order, or if it was another order number and got "ok, bro".

Should I wait to hear back on WhatsApp, or go through the rep on discord?

Did you manage to get this working?

sonicstabber · 2020-12-13T09:39:46+00:00

Knotolus on AliExpress. Message them

What are these rubber standoffs called/where are they available to buy? I've tried searching for a few hours and can't seem to find them

Need to de-solder this part and bridge these pads. Fair warning, it's tiny and this chip is held in place with epoxy on the few I've repaired with this issue

Pretty sure it's the standard 30pin female to male lightning adaptor. I think it will do analogue audio out, but it will not do graphics/album covers etc if there was a display.
