NVMe drive as boot drive or storage drive?

For NVMe boot drive, you need to reinstall the OS (windows 10 64bit/Windows 11 is recommended).

  • First you need to prepare a bootable usb drive and OS (windows 10 64bit/Windows 11).
  • When reinstalling the system, please select GUID Partition Table (GPT).
  • OS will reboot after completing installation, remove the bootable usb drive, enter BIOS to setup UEFI boot mode

 

For NVMe storage drive, Plug and play in Windows 11/10/8/Linux/Mac OS

  • Windows 7 can not support nvme drive
  • Brand new NVMe drive need to be Initialized and formated before OS recognize it.
