Kernel Panics in NVMe controller. "3rd party NVMe controller. Command timeout. Write. "

Running Monterey 12.7.1 NVMEFixKext V1.1.1

It's been stable for years running BigSur and prior versions. I upgraded to Monterey in 2023 and now is throwing errors. System crashed while awake. Could this be the NVMEFix Kext, or do I need to increase nand-io-timeoutms:?

I'm getting the same thing on macOS Sonoma 14.3 with NVMEFix 1.1.1. My SSD is an Acer Predator GM7000 4TB.

I know it's not planned, but if a change is made to the kext code could support for PM991 SSDs be added? I opened issue #2361 some time ago.

I have the same problem asus z790 proart creator wifi board and a Crucial T700 1TB Gen5 NVMe M.2 SSD - CT1000T700SSD3, hangs at start sometimes or just after login. is this a bad drive?
