M.2 SSD "Crucial MX500 1TB CT1000MX500SSD4" not detected

I got the Helios64 and was running it from an external SD card so far since when I first installed it, the other options where not available, yet. I'm running openmediavault 5.5 (Armbian 20.11.6 Buster with Linux 5.9.14-rockchip64). Now, I wanted to move the system to a SSD and installed a "Crucial MX500 1TB CT1000MX500SSD4" according to https://wiki.kobol.io/helios64/m2/ Unfortunately, the SSD is not detected by the system, see output of dmesg below. For ata1, it only shows SATA link down.

 

Is there anything I can do to figure out what the problem is? Or is there any reason why this particular SSD would not work?

Hi @tikey,

Did you make sure the SSD is making proper contact to the backplane connector? I also have some issues with the utmost left disk slot, when I remove/replace a disk in that slot, I have to open up the box and make sure that the connectors are tight and snug. If that does not help, you can try to insert the disk in another slot to rule out any connector or power rail issues. When box is open, make sure to also press down on the connectors in the main board, to make sure this is not related to loose cables or such.

Just FYI, I run a CT120BX500SSD1 in my box, although not the same model, but it works :-)

Groetjes,

Thanks for your answers and sorry for the late reply - unfortunately, I can only write 1 post/day in this forum so I can't even answer to your comments and questions.

So the SSD I'm using is a M2 which means that I couldn't just put it in another slot. But after @djurnys comment, I checked everything again and it turns out that I had the SSD the wrong way around. I didn't even think it would fit 2 ways but physically it does, it just doesn't work. I was first trying with a PCI SSD which is out of spec for the helios so I thought I overlooked some other compatibility issue. So thanks for your help and sorry about the noise. (But I can now confirm that the Crucial MX500 1TB is indeed working nicely also in the M2 version.
