My SSD plate for node after restarting the miner is no longer recognized. And Node can no longer be started. It comes all the time message no matter what I do: Node is offline
Double-check your USB node drive is plugged in the USB port in the back of your Apollo, properly formatted with the folder name "Bitcoin" in the root directory, and press the Start button below
How can I reinstall SSD on Miner?
Or how can I bring Miner to factory settings?
Please Help..
Thank you

if you reflash the micro sd card the miner will reset to defaults and SSD drive will resync itself. Image is in first thread I think

Your are right. Just tested It works

Thanks

Actually I re-flashed SD card and start process sync again.
I noticed that my SSD drive not mounted and bitcoin node is trying to sync on sd card.
How I can access my ssd drive on full package version?
When accessing ubuntu lsblk I am getting only mmcblk1 and zram0 and zram1.


I'd try shutting  down the miner, flip the miner over, remove the single screw holding the drive in. Remove and reinsert the drive. and power up again. (aka reseating the drive or failed part).

I did, but still the same. I wonder if ubuntu helps: sudo apt install nvme-cli and sudo nvme list?
Sorry to bother you, but I see you also encountered the issue I have now. May I ask is your resolved and main question how did you do it? I have the same issue with my recently received ones.
When I used an other SSD drive the drive showed up on the desktop and during formatting it also showed status. Once the format was done, disk was not visible anymore. So hope you have fixed it.
My OS had the SW from 12-2021 and already re-flashed it 3 times. Reseated the drive etc. Also I had Hardinfo installed, but the m2 drive doesn't seem to exist with the SSD's ?
Hope you or another specilist can goive this noob some solution Huh
Thanks.
