NVMe blocking reinstallation and update of Yellow

Dear Community,
I just discovered that removing my NVMe solved the issue that updates were not completing.
It was the same solution as my re-installation (SOLVED: Yellow, reinstallation fails after updates kept failing)

Could this be a faulty NVMe disk ?
After my last clean installation I added the disk hardware wise.
No config update whatsoever.
Then the November update 2024.11.0 did not go successful.
unplugging the disk, resulted in a successful update.

Any ways to test my disk ?
Or reformat it maybe ?
I will keep it out for now but want to use it as a data disk.
Disk details:
Kingston NV2, PICe 4.0 NVMe M.2 - 500 GB.

Martin.
