Hi,
My nice new laptop failed on the weekend. It appears to be an issue with the NVME drive. Won't boot, cant write to disk. Attempts to delete partitions throw an error. Attempts to re-install OS fail as it cannot write to drive.
I'm at the point where I've run out of ideas apart from attempting an NVME format.
Wondered if anyone had any ideas or experienced disk failures on an NVME drive?
Note: I've been running Linux Mint 21 on it since August last year.
