A new NVME m2 disk can not be partitioned
My computer is a HP Z420 with the most updated bios. The NVME (Through a PCIe adaptor) could be recognized by the system
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
$ lsblk

However, when use the fdisk to do the partition, it failed.
$sudo fdisk /dev/nvme0n1
Welcome to fdisk (util-linux 2.35.1).
Changes will remain in memory only, until you decide to write them.
Be careful before using the write command.

Re: A new NVME m2 disk can not be partitioned
I have almost the same exact issue on a similar machine (z820 also with latest FW). I'm using a PCIe adapter with a WDC SN520.
I can see the disk, smartctl data looks good, but no luck formatting. Have you had any luck since originally posting?
