Hi,
Sorry if this is in the wrong spot. I'm running Sierra so this seemed like the place. or should it be under "Bootloader"?
Build:
-Motherboard: Gigabyte Z170x ATX Gaming 5 (rev 1.1)(compatible with 6th and 7th gen. intel processors)
-CPU: 7th Gen. Intel Core i7 4.2GHz 7700k
-RAM: Ballistix 2x8GB DDR4
-Drive: 850 Evo SSD 500GB
-PSU: Corsair CS650M
-GPU: EVGA GeForce ATX 1050 SC Gaming 2GB
-WiFi Card: Fenvi Desktop Wireless Card 2.4/5GHz draft 802.11n 300Mbps
I cannot seem to get my Disk Utility to work. I read that I need a patch for my SSD to be seen but I don't understand the steps at all, just a huge line of code and no instructions for people with an average IQ. Found in this link: https://github.com/RehabMan/patch-nvme
I also read that I might just need to zap my NVRAM which cannot be done by the conventional Command+Option+P+R, and could be done by putting "sudo nvram -c" into terminal. This frightens me as I don't know how risky that procedure is.

Any help welcome.
