Same situation here. i140 getting more and more frequent blue screens. Started at about once a day, all the way up to 3 mins after boot rendering my machine completely unusable. Same symptoms described here, boot to BIOS and unable to detect the SSD. I tried reseating the RAM multiple times, and had no luck, but I ended up following @MostlyICareaLot and @eric418's suggestion and purchased a similar SSD extender cable, this one, specifically. Thanks so much for the images of the screws as well, super damn helpful! I didn't mount/properly secure the SSD, just sort of "wedged" it into some free space above the GPU cooler 🤷‍♂️ Also didn't buy a replacement SSD or anything, just used the original one with the extension cable and so far its looking good. Left my machine on overnight, which is far and away the longest its survived without a blue screen for the last couple of months. Fingers crossed it stays that way!
