nvme controller is down; will reset

[alekzunder]

Yes, requested me full hardware configuration. Offered add kernel options: libata.allow_tpm=1 nvme_core.default_ps_max_latency_us=0
In general, nothing interesting. There were a weekend, maybe they will write something today. Waiting....

Kingston solid states are actually pretty good, we have had better luck with them than samsung lately, and we go through a lot of hard drives at my office.


That being said I think you won the silicon lottery on this one, it certianly looks like you have a bad SSD drive. But I would also upgrade your motherboard, processor and ram while your at it... I've never liked the pcie expansion cards for nvme slots very much, its much better to have a board with native nvme slots in my opinion.

I got answer from support of Kingston: return to the store.

Addition:
I repeated check over fio, and noticed, that nvme controller down, if temperature more then 47...48 degrees!
I bought a new NVME Samsung, check fio. It work fine! At temperature above 60 degrees!
I'm shure that case in heated of NVME-controller.

I don't close topic yet...

Addition: on new nvme SSD, the error counter is also growing. How critical is it? I found https://github.com/linux-nvme/nvme-c...ent-1862744947

Did you end up returning this drive? There is a new firmware available for it now that solves a read degradation issue. It's not clear if this is the issue you were experiencing but I would try it if you still have the drive.
