I don't get it, the disk isn't detected in the BIOS and none of the changes help. Suddenly at 4.19 it is there. What did you do to make the BIOS detect the M.2 disk?
Thanks! This video helped me realize that my BIOS didn't yet have NVMe support. I have an ASUS H97M-PLUS mobo (pretty close). The support page mentions NVMe support with BIOS release Version 2501 2015/04/22!! Banged my head for hours. (It had support for m.2 SATA and PCI-E but not NVMe)
Is it possible to dual boot Win7 and Win10 from NVME? Specifically with the H97 board too, if you know from experience. Getting one soon and have come to understand NVME was very new or rare to see in this era. And that transfer speed is capped around 850MB/s on this one. Still a nice little speed boost compared to SATA SSD limitations.
How come my bios doesn’t show that “M.2 PCIe mode”? I have H97M plus. I have no problem before, but after I flashed updated the bios, the M.2 is not listed in boot options. I have to manually click the “boot f8” in lower left to enable booting to m.2. Help please thanks!
fresh unformatted M.2 drive do not have any other drive connected change to M.2 mode and it should just work, that is how I got my 970 evo to work on my old H- 97 M plus.
Hello sir. Thank you for your help, very unintuitive steps from Asus… Does this mean that we cannot use a 3070 video card anymore? I am asking as there was a warning with pci express being disabled in your video.
after shutdown sometimes, did you get the screen goes to Windows directly or you getting to BIOS again ? Because every morning, my PC with H97 Pro Gamer is always getting to BIOS all the time. What is wrong with that, please ?
Sorry for the late reply. It was some Chinese or japanese origin software. I couldn't remember exactly. I think it would be macrium reflect or AOMEI. I was trying with multiple softwares and finally got everything correctly.
would i have to do this again if i just upgrade my WD/Black M.2 Drive from the 250GB to a 500GB ?? or just do the windows installation? Great video 👍🏼its been a while since i did this i forgot, LOL.i know you have to mess around with the Setting in the Bios to get ur M.2 Drive to be recognized it can be a headache the first time of installation, that's why i am going to keep this video on my favorite videos List to remember in case i want to do new PC Build. One more question i see you have 3 fans going in Bios, mine only has the CPU spinning, not the other 2, But all work fine on my PC, just asking how did you get them to spin in the Bios 0:41
Sorry for the late reply. Thanks for adding it to favorites. I hope u need to do the same again if u add or upgrade your ssd. I'm not sure what you are mentioning in 0.41?
bro i needd help, my pc has same m.2 ssd, and my pc boots upto asus logo then keeps restarting, i tried following it but doesnt work, my windows not loading
@@SFrankRicharrd they are in the right slot, because the computer hs been working for 2 years now, only today when I tried to reset computer to update windows this problem occurred, my m.2 ss status shows ready in bio aswell
M.2 NVME 2260 or 2280 I believe (may want to double check). Though I'm sure you prob figured it out by now. About to get one myself and NVME is all new to me. This board allegedly caps data transfer to 850Mb/s though with it being so old, and "cheap fancy" lol. Still a nice little speed increase with SATA SSD having a 560Mb/s limit. I'm wondering if an NVME heatsink is needed with the max speed being so low, considering some drives boast a 10GB/s transfer speed. Logic tells me no, but... ???
Hi, I have a Z97-PRO GAMER and I don't know if this mainboard supports nVME drives. Asus says No, but I'm seeing it installed everywhere; Could you please help me?
I say, you have the other drive connected to your SATA6G_4... Do you know that according to the manual, precisely M.2 Socket 3 shares its bandwidth with SATA6G_4?...
Hi. Sorry for the late reply. My other drive is connected to SATA kind of wired connection on motherboard. But ssd is connected directly to the motherboard. Which i think it is dedicated to ssd not shared with the other SATA. sorry i haven't checked with manual though.
Still can't make it happen. I'm using an Intel 660p 500GB M.2 NVMe. All the settings are as in the video. The mobo if OK, because I can boot from a SATA M.2 and the NVMe is OK, cause is works perfectly on another mobo. Compatibility issue?
@@SFrankRicharrd I have 500GB Intel 660p M.2 NVMe SSD. I used it on an a Gigabyt mobo as a Windows 10 boot drive. The mobo broke and I installed the SSD on my ASUS h97 PRO GAMER mobo. Can't see it in the BIOS. I did everything as in the video plus I have tried a million other settings too.
@@SFrankRicharrd Hi Bro, Some says the samsung evo pro wont run in its full capabilty speed in this motherboard, If so ,can i inser it in a M.2 slot or i need a Pcie adapter card?
If u use adaptor, i think the speed will be reduced as it is not Directly connected to motherboard. When you connect the ssd directly on the motherboard, you will definitely get performance improvement. If not, get the old type ssd that includes the adaptor itself or changing the motherboard would be the best option to get the extra speed. But, in my machine, its speed varies from 450 to 600 MB per sec, which I'm ok with it. I couldn't get the speed they claimed like 3gb per sec, which will be in testing conditions.. realistically we can't get that much speed on this board
Update you BIOS by downloading it from www.asus.com/us/Motherboards/H97PLUS/HelpDesk_BIOS/ and following these instructions www.asus.com/support/faq/1008859
This guy saved my money, I thought my M.2 Ssd was disfunctional xD thx my man
Also, you got a new subscriber
I thought is was my mb xD

So I bricked my OC and had to clear cmos
After this my NVMe drive disserpeared, you help me get it back. So thank you

If it is restarting, you need to check the ram and bios. I believe your ram got installed in different slots if you have more than one ram
