W8 is a good OS so keep it if you like but 10 does work well for most. But windows is so much more mature than it was in 2015, when the above reports on w10 issues were made, they likely no longer apply. Then if problems arise with windows you have time to work on it. You will have the 8.1 drive so just make sure its not connected when you install on the 860. The key for all time eternal and infinite, isīack ups for what you want to keep. The updates have security improvements and new drivers so the goal should rather be to organize your systems to update, not to avoid updates. Some, but very few, are so annoyed by the updates they turn off update services but that is a poor solution. The media creation tool available here makes the install process a simple one.įuture updates may have similar issues, no guarantees about that but I have received 1809 three times now with no problems including the latest version. The latest updates, including 1809 which was recalled twice and now is re re released, lol, are available in one installation. You have decided against the NVMe so that's not an issue and installing to the 860 has no particular issue. Latest bios works, see here, (2015 era reports) Last I know it only offered support upto 8.1 but it would be great if I did not have to flash the BIOS. So I dont have to update the BIOS to install windows 10?. Would be a waste of money if I dont get the full speed from it. So I guess for the time being I should just buy the 860 EVO for simplicity sake and maybe do a bit more research into the NVME drives for the R4BE. I'm not sure if the Samsung driver will be helpful but you could install it just in case.ĪFAIK, no board changes needed to install w10 just use UEFI settings if you use them now and have only one drive attached when you do.ĪFAIK, no board changes needed to install w10 just use UEFI settings if you use them now and have only one drive attached when you do. ASUS has the boot menu available at F8 during POST so you could set the 840 as the boot in UEFI and then select the new drive when you want to boot W10. I personally would keep the OSs separate and use the new drive as the Windows 10 drive and for storage purposes. This connects pcie 3 x 4 and that ASUS board has those expansion connectors so worth a try. But will it be a boot drive ? Not many reviews say one way or the other but one does say " It boots !" Best to update your bios and pray. Reviews are generally positive about a full connection. Here is one, just be sure you can return it if she no work as sepc'ed. Earlier Windows Operating Systems may not be installable onto such SSD.Adapters do work but I have not got enough reports to say which adapters and which boards go together. Users, who are want to install Win10 onto such M.2/PCIe connected SSD running in AHCI mode, do not need to load any special AHCI driver.Ģ. their AHCI Controller, is the Win10 in-box AHCI driver.ġ. The only driver, which supports M.2/PCIe connected SSDs resp. Inserting driver in BIOS must help with that, so… maybe it needs simply a different driver : >Here< is the related guide with download links to the required EFI module. In case of an SSD, which uses the AHCI protocol, the user has to insert into the BIOS an EFI module, which supports the AHCI protocol. If the mainboard BIOS natively doesn’t support M.2/PCIe connected SSDs, theuser has to insert the missing EFI module, which supports booting off a M.2/PCIe connected SSD. I know it’s AHCI, my problem is with plugging it into M.2 “M-key” slot.ĭoesn’t that mean it needs PCI-e boot capable board/BIOS (x79 isn’t known for best comaptibility in that regard) ? I was confidant I had modified the bios (following the guide you linked) correctly and wanted to check if the hardware matched, then I could re-visit modding the bios (to see if I am using the wrong mod or where I was going wrong?) and post there. Why did you start a new thread instead of posting into >this< already existing one (with a guide about how to do it)? This indicates, you you have done a mistake either while modifying the BIOS or while trying to flash the BIOS Tried modding the latest 0801 bios… via Flash back, Black screen (auto reverted back to original working 0801) Within bios (all pages it may appear) and OS (Win 10 Disk management). How did you verify, that your M.2 drive has not been detected? I put a link in to the message for the WD WDS100T1B0B 1 TB 2.5-Inch Internal Solid State Drive – Blue.ĭoes your BIOS or your currently running OS (or both) not detect the NVMe SSD?īoth do not detect the SSD, But i’m not sure if it is strictly a NVMe or M.2 SATA (or if this makes a difference?). Sorry if my English is confusing… To put it another way, I am exhausted trying to get my Mother Board to recognize M.2 drive (in the bios or OS). Well totally stumped… Cant get MB to recognize M.2 drive at all.
