Has anyone ever had this issue with NVMe SSDs?

"A device which does not exist was specified."

Is this a hardware defect? The drive (PNY CS3140 1TB) is only about 5 weeks old. It seems to fix itself after a couple of reboots, but it's very annoying. Linux doesn't seem to have any issues with it yet.

Update: Solved by re-seating the drive in the slot: https://ma.fellr.net/users/fell/statuses/113883457441026891

@pavel @techsupport @aliceif It wasn't lying. Turns out the drive was fine, actually! It seems like the problem was caused by a dusty M.2 slot.

@fell @techsupport @aliceif Fun. I'd assume that crcs are now cheap enough that bad connection should not corrupt data, but clearly not so.
