Yesterday I was using my Hackintosh (vanilla) just like every other day. Today, it wouldn't boot up - it would to Clover, but not to macOs.
I'm using NVME M.2 SSD from ADATA, SX6000. Formatted to APFS. When booting up from backup, it shows up on desktop, but Disk Utility wasn't able to repair it. After complete erase, I recovered it from backup.
However, it was probably a cause of freezing in last week, even when I tried to create Fusion Drive.
I have to wonder, if this is a potential HW failure or macOS High Sierra just isn't completely tuned for NVME.
it's hardly a file format issue as I have mentioned, macOS was freezing even on Fusion Drive where both SSD and HDD were formated as HFS+.
If it's going to occur later, I suspect a HW failure and will have to send SSD back to seller. No big deal, I have spare SSD I can boot from and User folder is on separate HDD.
Case is ventilated very well, straight airflow from front to back, noctua nh-14 fans. I'm not using any HFS utility under Windows (where I boot only rarely).
