NVME unavailable on MSI Z170A GAMING M5, to use as chase

[Popeye-DR]

 I am using MSI Z170A GAMING M5 motherboard, and I have a NVME that I installed windows on it because I needed to do some hardware test.

 

Now I am using xpelology, but the SSD is still on the board, but I cannot see it anyplace (Storage Manager Tool) to see if I can used it like a chase file, like Plex metadata.

 

Is there any way that it could be use as chase, of do you think that I cannot see it due to hardware comparability?

Hi. Please use seaech on this forum before posting the new topic. You should use the pach for activating nvme support.

NVME is not enabled by default, but here is a software mod to enable it for cache drive purposes. Search the forum, I use it and frankly I find NVME read cahce worthwhile where in the past I didnt like SATA Read or Write cache.
