I have a Asus Z270 APEX MB with the DIMM.2 Card running 2 NVME Samsung SSDs. 1x 960 Pro 512GB & 1x 970 EVO 512GB.
I previously had them in raid and during the raid setup I installed the driver, but this morning I decided to remove the raid and go back to having the two drives apart as I was not getting the speeds I was hoping for. I have installed Win 10 x64 Pro on the 960 Pro located in slot 1 on the DIMM.2 card.
Everything is running smooth besides for me not being able to install the Samsung NVME driver V3.3. I get a device is not connected error, although in Magician, Device manager and everywhere else the drives are showing and running fine, besides for only getting 60% of my Read & Write speed on the 960.
Under Samsung Magician I get a driver error saying the Intel Corporation driver is not supported.
I checked everywhere but there was no sign of such driver installed, nor did I install it, so I could not remove it. I then tried to install it to check if I remove it whether I would be able to then install the Samsung driver, but in did not work.
What I have tried,
Reset BIOS
960 Pro in Hyper M.2 x4 Card [This causes a reboot loop. I know the card is fine so I do not know whether that PCIe slot is damaged, will investigate this]
Older versions of the Samsung NVME Driver
Other methods of updating/installing the driver. Just not working.
Anyone have any solutions to this short of formatting again? It still shows Intel Corporation driver in Samsung magician although it isn't installed anywhere. Can't even find it running.
