Hello,
when I boot on this laptop with live USB (Manjaro and Linux Mint) I can’t see the two installed M.2 PCIe SSDs. On each of them Windows 10 is installed and boots. The devices are also recognised by the UEFI firmware. I shut both Windows down with cmd shutdown command.
Secure boot and Fast boot are disabled.

Any ideas how I can make the SSDs available for Linux?
