Comment on Sandy Bridge-era motherboard gets M.2 SSD boot support 12 years after launchparent

Comments

Figured I'd provide the old version of those examples from above in the thread.

Here are the NEW sentences again, for convenience:

"Notably, Gigabyte has seemingly updated the 13-year-old B75M-D3H motherboard to support booting from NVMe SSDs, like M.2 SSDs, a previously unavailable functionality."

"An analysis of the F16f firmware using UEFITool reveals the inclusion of the NVMe DXE trifecta (Nvme, NvmeSmm, NVMEINT13), which is essential for booting from NVMe drives, like M.2."

"The motherboard features one SATA III and five SATA II connectors for storage, explaining its initial lack of support for booting from NVMe drives. Nonetheless, users can employ M.2 to PCIe adapters, allowing M.2 drives to connect with the motherboard via its expansion ports."

And here are the OLD:
