NVIe Key M M.2 SSD support
I am attempting a machine recovery to a new SSD, which I find is an NVIe Key M M.2 SSD. However, Acronis does not see the drive at all. I come to understand that there are 2 versions of M.2 SSDs one which uses SATA logical architecture (Key B) and one that uses PCIe logical architecture (key M) is there a roadmap for support on this? the true image product is useless to me without support for this.

WinPE solves the issue.
However, it's the sata mode that is the issue with the Linux recovery media. Workaround is to temporarily change sata mode from RAID to AHCI, boot to Acronis and backup or restore. Then change the bios sata mode back to RAID before booting the OS. Linux is the hold up with the RAID driver support, nvme is fine.
highly encourage you to make a WinPE recovery with the MVP WinPE tool though. It's easy to run and already includes the IRST drivers to support NVME in RAID SATA mode.
