Dell PowerEdge Express Flash NVMe PCIe SSD Adapter User’s Guide

PDF

NVMe PCIe SSD description is truncated

Description
In Windows 2012 R2 , the device description is truncated from the Device Manager > Disk Drives view. For example, you see NVMe Dell Express Flash or NVMe Dell Express Fla SCSI Disk Device  instead of NVMe Dell Express Flash SCSI Disk Device .
Cause
In Windows 2012 R2 , there is a new flag STOR_FEATURE_DEVICE_NAME_NO_SUFFIX that removes the suffix in the device friendly name. This is only seen in Windows 2012 R2 and this flag is enabled by design of the Windows 2012 R2 in-box driver. The Dell-provided NVMe driver uses the correct flag, but you may see the device name truncated intermittently.
Solution
This is a known issue and the message can be ignored.
