Samsung 970 EVO M.2 NVMe SSD

So there was no correction for this behaviour?

As far as I know, no fix was ever found.

Same problem with the 970 EVO PLUS, very slow! I'm switching to the EVO "standard". Sad.

Does osX crash?

Hi,
first I used CCC to clone my other SSD, an Intel 525.
But the result was a disk very very slow that cannot even boot.
Then I tried a clean installation with no success.
I give up, the EVO PLUS has arrived today and I just applied for a refund and bought an EVO.

Just tried a 970 EVO PLUS. High Sierra not happy at all! System crashes after a couple of minutes. Fine under Windows.

Just installed a 1tb 970 plus and my system reboots after a few minutes. I’m also getting usbechixxxxxxxx@400000000 recovery messages in verbose mode.

same problem here Sierra 10.13.4 with my old Evo 970 is solid no problems , bought a Evo 970 plus 1 tb 2 days a go and can't get it to stable , it is recognised and loads to desktop but within a few minutes system shuts down , fresh install would fail , but I did manage to clone to it and boot off it but would fail again after a few minutes , do we know why they don't work is it a hardware limitation or driver support ?

I don't know. My guess is it is driver support.

Same here. The usbehci is a different issue. The reboot/restart usually happens within 5-10mins of login but on some rare occasions my system can last 15min plus but it will always restart eventually.

Oh and I don’t get an error log too

yep no error log here aswell , I did find that while I had the 970 Evo 500gb as my boot and the Evo plus 1tb as a blank second drive reformatting as ntfs lasted longer before reboot not sure why , wish I had the knowledge and know how to make a fix of sorts but im very limited ha ha , im sure there will be a fix one day

 

[Mystroe]

ntfs lasted longer

Yes - similar experience here. I've arranged a return on mine and will try the standard EVO 970.
