@dgtdabbler I am sorry, but I (and Medion) can not help you any further. As I told you before already. Medion only supports Windows issues, not Linux.. Second your Notebook came equipped with a SATA M.2 SSD. Nowhere it is said it runs a PCIe M.2 SSD. I doubt a PCIe/NVME protocol is applied to the one and only M.2 port in your NB. If you make use of an external USB PCIe to USB Adapter, of course a PCIe M..2 will work externally.. Third the OEM Notebook and it's Bios is produced in China or Taiwan. No one here at Medion or in the Forum will be able to get a or modify an OEM Bios. And the manufacturer in China himself will definitely not do this for a OEM product. Except from that, Medion only supports Windows, and not Linux. I assume, the M.2 Port in the notebook only supports SATA. We can ask a moderator ( eg @Andi ) to check in Medions database if the PCIe protocol is linked to the only M.2 port also; or if there exists a newer Bios. But sold they all were equipped with a SATA M.2 only. This might have a reason! But for this you have to state the MSN number of your notebook first. It's a 8 digit number, beginning with 300...... ; and printed on a sticker underneath the bottom case. Or check in Windows with msinfo32.exe. The line System-SKU shows he MSN within it's last eight digits. And tell us the Bios version. Bye, daddle
