10
+ If you're experiencing slow performance or errors with your Gen 4 M.2 NVMe
11
+ drive, you might need to reinstall the drive into a new slot on your
12
+ workstation's motherboard.
13
+
14
+ There's a known issue where Gen 4 M.2 NVMe drives experience slow performance
15
+ and errors when installed into the ** M.2_1** slot in ASUS Pro WS WRX80E-SAGE
16
+ SE WIFI motherboards, which are used in Lambda workstations. The manufacturer
17
+ of the motherboard, ASUS, is aware of the issue.
18
+
19
+ Until ASUS releases a BIOS update that fixes the issue, you can work around
20
+ the issue, depending on your workstation's drive configuration:
21
+
22
+ - If you have only 1x M.2 NVMe drive in your workstation, move the drive from
23
+ slot ** M.2_1** to slot ** M.2_2** .
24
+
25
+ - If you have 1x M.2 NVMe drive and 1x U.2 NVMe drive in your workstation,
26
+ move the M.2 NVMe drive from slot ** M.2_1** to slot ** M.2_2** . Move the U.2
27
+ NVMe drive from slot ** U.2_1** to slot ** U.2_2** .

32
+ Unfortunately, there currently is no known workaround for workstations that
33
+ have 1x M.2 NVMe drive and 2x U.2 NVMe drives.

You can’t perform that action at this time.
