it´s for both RTL9210 and RTL9210B Chipsets dumped the current fw info with MPTool, made sure to change all parameters in *.cfg file RTL9210B_CG_Lite.cfg to match the original fw dumped info and finally commented the DISK_IPS_THRES entry.

Fideco,Orico..
1. Remove nvme from enclosure.
2. Fw update to latest firmware your rtl9210 enclosure see above for latest fw and cfg file.
3. Update to latest firmware your nvme m.2 using a pcie pc slot see nvme manufacturer app.
4. Reinsert nvme to enclosure and be happy.

If you brick RTL9210 Driver her is a method to unbrick Drive with Reset SERIAL FLASH MEMORY Chip with 8 Pin same Procedure for JMS583.
Find a Chip on the board that is small and has 2x3 mm aspect ratio and on the top is printed P25Q40SH or FM25Q04A or PUYA P25D40H. Search for the Datasheet of it look for CS# and VCC Pin or CS# and Hardware Reset Pin in Datasheet description of Pin Configurations. There is a Hard Reset Procedure on Rom in case of bricking your device. You need to short pins 1 & 8 with tweezers then connect to USB port for 10 seconds (until you hear a ding) and then remove the tweezers (unshort) while it still plugged in and flash a working Rom via USB from here. This will force RTL9210 to start with internal ROM, not with external f/w in SPI flash.

On this page :   plugable.com/products/usbc-nvme   I found a firmware revision for  RTL9210  which is doesn’t available here on Station-Drivers: 1.27.5 (december 2021).

Download:   media.plugable.com/downloads/drivers/pro...ekfirmware202112.zip  

Release notes:

Released December 2021This firmware update aims to improve stability with Samsung 980 Pro and Western Digital SN550 NVMe SSDs.The power LED behavior is also improved on Windows, and Intel based Mac systems: now when safely ejected the power LED should turn off ( it may blink slowly ) indicating the drive may be safely unplugged from the computer.This update is recommended for uses who have experienced connectivity problems with Samsung 980 Pro or Western Digital SN550 NVMe SSDs.

I’ve tried to add it manually but it doesn’t work. Is there any problem to submit new file on Station-Drivers?

@admin Could you add this, please?

Unfortunately it does not seem to have files for RTL9210B in it.
