My laptop is working just fine. It’s from 2018 and it has an NVME drive.
It has an EFI boot partition and other partition with LUKS and LVM on top of that.
Since this week I see these logs from time to time:
Mar 07 17:31:14 almendra kernel: pcieport 0000:00:1d.6: PCIe Bus Error: severity=Corrected, type=Physical Layer, (Receiver ID)
Mar 07 17:31:14 almendra kernel: pcieport 0000:00:1d.6: device [8086:34b6] error status/mask=00000001/00002000

Mar 07 17:31:14 almendra kernel: nvme 0000:02:00.0: [ 0] RxErr (First)
The devices are:
$ lspci -vv | grep 1d.6
00:1d.6 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation Device 34b6 (rev 30) (prog-if 00 [Normal decode])
$ lspci -vv | grep 02:00.0
02:00.0 Non-Volatile memory controller: Intel Corporation Optane NVME SSD H10 with Solid State Storage [Teton Glacier] (prog-if 02 [NVM Express])
The laptop works like always, but I have the impression that the NVME drive is telling me something bad.
It happens from time to time:
$ journalctl --since yesterday | grep -c "nvme 0000:02:00.0: PCIe Bus Error: severity=Corrected, type=Physical"

Do you know what does it mean?
I will start with the cheapest option 😅
I assume the power supply is reliable. Having a battery should make it more stable I guess.
