Hello everyone, I bought this mainboard and it runs very well except for one thing, I have 3 M2 WD Black SN850X on the board all in perfect slots so that the graphics card does not go down to x8 (lane-sharing) but in Windows 11, for example, in the Task Manager all 3 SSDs are displayed as HDDs, even in new games I get a warning that I should better install the game on an SSD. Everything should be correct in the Bios, the Device Manager says the drivers are up to date but when I start WD Dashboard my SSDs are not recognised. I have already defragmented all 3 but it still says hard drive instead of SSD. Does anyone know another tip? I've already spent hours on Google and ChatGPT didn't give me a solution either. Oh yes, fortunately Crystaldiskmark shows in the test that the SSDs are running at full speed.

Accepted Answer

Hello,

I have the same configuration - with 3 SSDs from WD - do you have the latest version of the Dash Board? Just don't defragment any more - it's poison for SSDs.

The SSDs are recognised in my dashboard! Western Digital Dashboard 4.3.2.4

I think if the SSDs are running at full speed in CrystalDiskMark, then everything is fine! The dashboard monitoring seems to have errors!
