I would use M2_3 for the SATA3 drive and keep M2_1 empty for a fast PCIe SSD in the future (this port is directly connected to the CPU).]]> Fri, 16 Aug 2019 04:49:57 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=12217&PID=66707&title=problems-with-bios-1-80-x570-taichi#66707 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=12217&PID=66704&title=problems-with-bios-1-80-x570-taichi#66704 Author: Havokin

Apologies, I misremembered. M.2 Drive is in what is actually the M.2_2. It not being compatible would totally explain everything, I could have sworn the user manual said both slots 1 and 2 were compatible with Sata 6Gb.

I will try slot 1 and report back.]]> Fri, 16 Aug 2019 04:42:28 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=12217&PID=66704&title=problems-with-bios-1-80-x570-taichi#66704 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=12217&PID=66701&title=problems-with-bios-1-80-x570-taichi#66701 Author: Ray62

I don't know where you can find a M2_4 slot on this board.

The 860 EVO 1TB SSD is a SATA3 drive and should work in slot M2_1 or M2_3]]> Fri, 16 Aug 2019 04:11:24 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=12217&PID=66701&title=problems-with-bios-1-80-x570-taichi#66701 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=12217&PID=66696&title=problems-with-bios-1-80-x570-taichi#66696 Author: Havokin

I updated my x570 Taichi to BIOS 1.8 on the 9th; everything worked fine until yesterday, when I changed the CSM Compatibility to read my M.2 Samsung 860 EVO 1TB SSD drive I had put in slot M.2_4.

I followed all instructions to the letter on install, and drive is fully seated and screwed down, and thermal paste cover is off. Before I changed CSM compatibility the BIOS and system ran fine even with compatibility off and not seeing the drive.

Once I changed compatibility and saved and restarted the system went into Boot-Loops, and will no longer post.

I have tried clearing the CMOS multiple times, different ways - I am fine trying again in case somehow I was doing the procedure wrong this entire time, and for the past near decade since buttons first popped up on boards, but I am wondering if anyone else has had a similar problems or recommendations on where to go next, should I reflash BIOS?
