Hi Guys
I have a 2023 Asus M16 laptop. Recently I decided to add a 2TB Nvme drive to the second slot inside the laptop, giving me a total of 3TB.
After installing the SSD and screwing the back panel on the laptop wouldn't power on. I plugged the laptop into the charger and then it started fine. The laptop would then only start up occasionally when not plugged in. Unplugging it as soon as it's booted is fine, the laptop stays on.
I can either power it through the main power connector or even using a power bank through one of the USB C ports to get it to turn on. I then immediately disconnect power as soon as it's booted if I don't need to keep it connected.
Any suggestions what might be the issue?
