What mobo is this on ? I know newer systems have zero problems with pcie nvme booting but mine is 8+years old Skylake Z170. Still rock solid tho.

 

Hi my friend, im was used for long time on my old retired GA Z170 XP SLI, great mobo BTW, is quiet on my stuffs, and was used in all my MOBOS, because this is a NVME PCI-e x16 express, but because one x16 slot to GPU like AMD, its possible use x8 or x4 slots. Works fine and good, even not impress or lost constancy or velocity to run any operational system. I retired this express Nvme external too, because my Z790 Aorus Elite AX have many slots to M.2 Nvme cards/ssd.

PS - Does anybody know if I can boot Sonoma from nvme plugged into the Pci slot of the MB ? I checked the manual (Asus Maximus VIII Gene) but no info is provided about such scenario. I have spare nvme's that I want to use for test. It's unconvenient to remove the GPU and replace the nvme everytime since I have only one m.2 pcie slot. 

 

Just to confirm that I was able to clean install MacOS Sonoma Beta 6 to a brand new WD SN770 1TB hooked on PCIe NVME Adapter AND BOOT from it without any problems. System is blazing fast and the NVME never exceeds 45'C under load. Thanks for the help!

I boot and use Sonoma installed on NVME/PCIe adaptor an Ivy Bridge rig.

Impressive! Did you modify the BIOS ? I sold my Ivy Bridge hack (Gigabyte Z77X-D3H + i7 3770K + GTX 770) with a fresh install of Mojave 10.14.2 (mid december 2018). Worked rock solid back then but never tried m.2 drives on it.

All good here. OS is rock solid. Love it! :) I bought cheap RX 570 4GB for testing my Skylake rig but I am lazy enough so I just applied the OCLP and postponed it for the next week :D
