[Solved] High Sierra Do Not See My NNVME

[egesukru]

Hi everyone
I got Toshiba Z30-A-136
There is a PCIExp SSD card on it and it is model number is :thnsnj256gmct
I am newbie and this is my first time.
I've created the installation USB drive as described on the forum. There is a guide for my notebook model written by @jlsantos.
This one is the URL of guide: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/guide-toshiba-z30-a-macos-10-12-1-uefi-mode.207951/

I can boot with MacOS everything is fine, my touchpad keyboard etc are working perfect but I can not see my NVMe disk on disk utility.

I have researched about this issue but still can not resolve it.

Could you please help me about it.

There is an screenshot below of my DiskUtility window.

Thank you all.

Try go to terminal and check with diskutil, if it is a brand new SSD you might need to create the partition from terminal.
For some reason it doesn't show up in Diskutillity, when brand new out-of-box.
I had the same problem, but this helped.

I have solved the problem. Maybe someone need it so I am writing here.

I have created an bootable USB with Paragon Partition Manager.

It can see NVMe disks and can format them as APFS.

So I have formatted the drive as APFS.

After that booted with High Siearra.

Open terminal and delete your drive.


Commands

Diskutil list (To see what is my disk number)

Diskutil erasedisk JHFS+ /dev/disk0


Than now just install your OS.


Probabyly this one is really easy for Professional mac users, but I am newbie and so happy now J

It is still installing now and I am really impatient.

Click on the view button at top left And select show all volumes. I had the same problem with my NVMe drives but they both showed up ready to be formatted once I changed the view setting.
