How to disable an M2 NVMe drive from appearing in macOS? #45

Hello!

Is there a possibility to disable a specific M.2 slot? I am assuming I should be using a custom SSDT (but don't know how)

See chapters 1 and 2.

You need to find the PCI path of the device in th DSDT. If it contains the method _STA you can disable it pretty easy via SSDT.

I suggest asking for help on a Hackintosh forum or on reddit.
