Hi, I’m waiting for my VIM3 to arrive, do you think this SSD would work? A-Data SX6000 Lite: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07N22YS84/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awdb_imm_t1_Ent3FbWFTV5VQ
Thanks!

Hi, I have not seen on the forum that someone discussed this SSD model, I know for sure, Samsung will do, but you understand correctly, not every SSD can be suitable
@manuel-arguelles I have no idea of telling if its compatible or not, as the SSD controller is not specified.
if it using a phison branded controller, it has a high chance of compatibility, but there is no chance of knowing that.
if you need a decent quality SSD for a good price, go with the WD blue SN550 NVMe SSD, its reasonably priced, and has very low power consumption, best choice you can go for.

CONFIRMED !!!
Yes, Samsung is too expensive to use with speed limits
I believe more SSD’s will be able to work with VIM3 boards once we will get a mainline kernel… Checked NVMe drivers in 5.X Linux branch - some many things changed. At least my cheap Silicon based NVME SDD started to work (there is quirk for it in mainline) in mainline kernel. So AOSP seems to be a solution - hoping Khadas team will be able to roll it out
Hi @hyphop and @Electr1 can you please confirm the WD Blue SN550 works on the VIM3 and have personally known this to be the case? I have a VIM3 Pro currently on its way to me and was going to buy a drive and that seems excellent value. I intend to run the latest Armbian. I saw another user say it didn’t work VIM3 NVMe SSD Detection Failure. Multiple solutions attempted
Thanks
YES ! like other drives from WD Blue series works well
Thanks very much, especially for how quickly you got back

Do you have
$ hdparm -tT /dev/yournvmedevice
I have the 970 evo and 960 on the Vim3 and a WD NVMe on another Vim3 and just curious how the brand you are using compares to what we have here.
actually i should find again the tool that i have tested it yesterday , maybe it depends form setting obviously
but …that is for now
Hi, what’s the status of the mainline kernel with M.2? is it enabled or just for 4.9?
@manuel-arguelles It work normal with mailine kernel . Our test SSD model is Samsung 970/980.
ohhh transfer speeds are so low (
Hi, something odd happened. I plugged an nvme drive while using the mainline version of Ubuntu, it didn’t show anything, so I just forgot about it and moved on (while leaving it plugged).
This was an old installation of ubuntu gnome and I wanted to try something more up to date, I wanted to try a rolling distribution (Manjaro), but something was different today: lsblk showed the nvme drive, I was able to re-partition and format it.
After that I moved on with the plan and installed Manjaro (minimal) via krescue sd, upgraded it and found that I don’t have nvme anymore, dmesg doesn’t show anything (actually not really sure what to look for, but nvme doesn’t return anything).
How can I debug or get more information? is there a kernel module that needs to be loaded or similar?
Thanks
After updating uboot to the SPI using krescue it works fine! the model is: ADATA SX6000LNP.
$ sudo hdparm -t --direct /dev/nvme0n1

This document link gives a 404 error. I require this data also. I am running the latest version of Armbian configured for Khadas VIM3 if that is of any use.
