    Hi, how are you?! Recently I bought an SSD M.2 NVMe Kingstone 1Tb to my old motherboard Asus Z97m-plus LGA1150 (2015) m.2 socket 3, in order to improve the speed of my files transfer( I´m Designer working with 3D reality)...When the system is installed in my old HDD (Win 10 PRO original) he did recognize the new volume without no worries, I can transfer files without problems.... but when I try to install the whole system into it, with a boot Pendrive method, the BIOS didn´t recognize the same one, it´s very strange because I can still install the system into my SSD... but when I restart my computer, some times appears only the BIOS screen, other times the blue screen of death from Win 10.... Now I'm looking for some sort of adapter PCIe, I hope this solve the problem, what you think? It´s gonna work or not? Thank you kindly!

    Hello, I'm doing fine. That's an interesting situation because it should work if you already have m.2 slot. I'm assuming you tried enabling the EUFI in BIOS.. aside from that it seems to be specific to that motherboard. Maybe an adapter will help you but not sure to be honest. Let me know if it does. Good luck.

    @@Cobuman Your comparison video is great, however, there are a few factors that need to be addressed. Your speed test starts with a 500 gig sata ssd. Then you go to the 250 m.2. The reason your speeds are so close together on those 2 drives are a fact of TBW which you can look at as, say the cashe. You noticed how both started out fast and then slowed down a little, that's because the 500 drive has a longer TBW than the 250. Each drive has a tbw or total bytes written threshold. the biger the tbw the longer the drive will hold that transfer rate b4 slowing down.even though the 5000 gig is a sata interface, it still has a larger tbw. thats why the speeds were relatively close in time. I am using a Pcie adapter with my 1tb m.2. I am also going to migrate my OS to that drive after cleaning up a bit. Thanks for the info in both videos. Nice work on the comparison. Keep up the great work.

    Would have been nice to talk about what BIOS changes are necessary for compatibility because you quickly gloss over that without any detail. For this drive to be bootable, your BIOS has to find this card as a UEFI bootable device. In some cases, you might need to enable PCI-e bifurcation (which is basically just splitting the PCIe lanes for read and write). Most importantly, you'll need to be sure that your CPU has enough PCIe lanes available to access this disk. A dual GPU or high-end GPU might be taking most. It doesn't matter how many PCIe slots your motherboard has, most commonly the CPU does not have the lanes to address all of them.

    The screw and standoff for the SSD are not screwed down correctly. There should be a gap between the SSD and the surface of the underlying PCB. This standoff should stick through the hole loosely and the half hole of the SSD should seat against the standoff and screw. The socket spring tension will keep the shoulder of the standoff in contact with the underlying PCB. They didn't just include a nut instead of the standoff for this reason.

    I think you might be confusing people with the way you referred to PCIe slots. There are four different PCI Express slot types. They can be differentiated by their physical size. PCI Express cards use the x1, x4, x8 and x16 sizes, which reflect how many individual data connector lanes the card supports. The number following the "x" in the name is mathematically relevant to the size of the card connector. For example: a x8 slot is twice the size of a x4 slot, and a x16 slot is four times as large as a x4 slot. The color of the slot is manufacturer dependent and is not consistent across all computers. In terms of PCIe speed, there are five PCIe versions with increasing levels of throughput from 1 to 5. The PCIe controller will throttle down to match the speed of the card if it is less than the speed of the slot.

    On your close-up, the white PCI slot ALSO says X1 PCI (aka PCIe X1), just like your smaller format black ones. So, you are actually only running your PCIeX4 card at PCIe-X1 speeds. So, you should see even more speed if you have a proper spec PCIe-X4 slot to perform these steps on.

    Yeah I totally agree. About the only technical reason for using one of these cards _might_ be some kind of IOP or sustained read/write advantage over an SSD? I doubt you'd see any real world difference though. Personally I just buy more ram and use a WD black or even a couple of cheap drives in raid 1 or raid 0 will give a good speed boost to an old PC. You can get some fairly cheap and good raid cards that support PCI-E v2 for about $100USD that will support 4 or 8 drives. I used to use a perc 5i and that gave some really good sustained speeds with 4 drives in raid 0.

    it´s the same, the adaptdor is not slower. In fact, the adaptor does nothing... the data goes direct from the SSD to PCI express bus, without any interference.

    depends on the systems bios options if you can boot through pci like that. otherwise what you need instead is a pcie to sata with a controller that uses a chipset that is supported by the os. i don't know about doing this in win10 have only done this on really old pc that was pci and ide and boots to lubuntu through a sata raid card on a pci slot.

Question: would there be any speed advantage in also having the VIDEO EDITING program on this drive along with the video files? That's as opposed to having the editing program on boot drive C:, which is also an SSD.
