As I previously reported in my (wrong) AppleALC issue ( #1262 , sorry in the end it wasn't related to applealc itself) this SSD doesn't seem to work well with MacOS.
Basically sometimes, especially when rebooting from Windows, MacOS runs this disk well with correct speed: 600MB/s write; 1400MB/s read. After some random work the speed of the disk suddenly decreases (150MB/s r/w) and the system suffers from freezing and bad performance (and so does the audio) when accessing the disk. The disk temperature is ok.
Rebooting and Shutdown usually doesn't solve the problem and almost always results in the same kernel panic:
panic(cpu 2 caller 0xffffff8004346cde): nvme: "Fatal error occurred. CSTS=0xffffffff US[1]=0x0 US[0]=0x14d VID=0x8086 DID=0xf1a5

Sleep suffers also from the same kp.
The count of Unsafe Shutdowns: from smartctlincrease.
Tried NVMeFix with and without APST but it doesn't fix. Here is reported the same experience: https://jiashun-zheng.medium.com/hackintosh-journey-on-a-lenovo-yoga-720-81d3f0717922 (section "Poor NVME performance")
I'm opening this issue to ask if NVMeFix could fix this kind of problem or at least avoid the kernel panic. Or, instead, the advice is to replace (again) the drive and maybe put Intel 600p In the blacklist of drives for macOS in the interest of other users who own / plan to use the same disk.
Thanks as always.
