IONVMeController.cpp compatibility with EVO 960

[jensenflemming]

Hi,

First - I am actually running on a 2015 Macbook Pro Model 11,3 where I have removed the original Apple SSD and inserted a Samsung EVO 960 SSD using an NGFF adapter from Sintech.

I am writing this thread in order to hear if there could be some kind of solution / fix to make the above combination more stable in regards to rebooting...

What I see is that if I do a reboot of the machine it will take very long time for it to show the logon screen - plus 45 secs.

Sometimes during reboot it will do a Kernel Panic and try again.

Eventually it will show the login screen and I can login.

Then sometimes the computer is now stable for several weeks because I just close the lid and make the computer sleep. No problems.

But sometimes after logging in the computer gived KP again.

So the NVME driver seems to not be completely happy about the Samsung NVME - are there any patches available??

This is the KP log message that I see:

Hi, I experience the same problem with the same drive.. (but the pro version) on same mac year..
I have the same kp who happens often...

I think that it doesn't work right with samsung drives.. heard about intel drives working better. I think i'm gonna test that in the future. Or if anyone have the same mac as us with an other SSD with no kp would be great sharing it
