Hi, I purchased the Wokyis M5 80Gbps and the M.2 slot does not detect any NVMe drive. I tested with a WD Blue SN570 1TB (M.2 2280) which is confirmed working in another enclosure. The Thunderbolt connection works fine (device shows up in macOS system profiler at 40Gb/s), power supply is connected to the PD 36W port, and the drive is properly seated with the retention screw. Despite all of this, the drive is never detected. I believe the M.2 slot on my unit is defective. Can you please advise on a replacement or repair? Thank you.
