Hiya!
New-ish to the Pi-world, but not Linux in general... I have a fresh install on SD card running on my 16gb Pi5.
I have the m.2 hat from this kit connected: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0DSDNF59W
It has a green power led, which is lit when the unit is up and running.
I have a WD SN740 2242 512MB drive connected to it, which I took out of a Legion Go (where it worked fine, also works fine in an external usb-c enclosure on windows and on this pi5)
I have dtparam=nvme in the config.txt file.
I have rebooted a bajillion times.
Problem is (as you've probably guessed), the drive doesn't show at all on the Pi.
lspci doesn't show the board
lsblk doesn't show the drive
the "act" led on the board never blinks
I have disassembled and reassembled the whole thing and disconnected/reseated the ribbon cable.
Not sure what else to do.
Hopefully someone has an idea I haven't thought of.
Thanks for reading!
