Have some new old stock SATA drives vomiting at you?

Grab your contact cleaner and clean their SATA connectors!
I just bought a new 1TB Crucial MX500 made in god knows what year and installed it in a virgin SATA port of a M710q made in 2016 and I got the vomit you see above every time I loaded the drive. Reseated all the connectors. More vomit. Scratched my head a couple of times reaching for the trash bin and I had a brainwave that there might be oxidation from sitting naked with the elements. Took out the DeoxIt Gold, dabbed all the connectors on the SATA path, cycled them a few times, powered on and loaded the drive. No more vomit.

Nice. I would not have thought to clean the connectors.
Dumb question but what do you mean you cycled them a few times?
Plugged/unplugged.
Well there’s your problem. You’ve got to plug it back in!
Unplugged and plugged back in.
It tells you right there in the log: “DRDY”

Usually just plug/unplug couple of times is enough. No fancy chemicals.
SATA minimum rated connection cycles 50. 😂
Mood.
Uh they’re played in gold and the geek squad guy specifically said they never need washing
