Hey fellas! I was trying to install Ventura on my laptop, with an AMD Ryzen 5 4600h, Gtx 1650ti(Disabled) and my Samsung MZVLQ512HALU-000H1 Pm991 NVMe 512GB M.2 PCI-E NVMe SSD.

Hackintosh seems to dislike my SSD or something, cause it always fails to format it and returns an error code (i think it was -69760)


EDIT : I installed it on a pendrive, and it worked flawlessly! Still can't install it on the SSD tho 😭

Have a read of this page from the Anti-Hackintosh Buyers Guide, your NVMe drive is mentioned. As it is an unsupported drive when it comes to macOS as it has an unsupported NVMe controller.


You need to replace the Samsung drive in your laptop, with a macOS compatible drive. SanDisk and Western Digital NVME drives are both good makes for macOS, as they use a compatible NVMe controller.

Have a read of this thread over at Tonymacx86 regarding compatible NVMe boot drives for Ventura, Sonoma and Sequoia.
