X1003 ribbon cable issue


  • Hi all,

     
    I just wanted to share my experience and experimentation with an X1003.
     
    I have tried multiple NVME drives with the X1003 and most were problematic. My benchmark drive was a WD SN530, which is reported to work and does not have a phison controller.
     
    I tried two different x1003's and the results were the same. The Pi 5 can read the NVME, and clone the CD card to the SSD without any issues; however, it is unable to boot into the SSD and gives an 'unable to open the NVME' error message when trying to boot.
     
    Where it get interesting is that I tried a different PCIe ribbon cable, and the drive booted perfectly.
     
    I had the same results using a Samsung PM981 and an Integral drive too.

    Later in the packing list, we start using the new FFC cable
