Threadripper NVME RAID boot Windows 7/8 in future?

darrellg1972 Nov 15, 2017 3:27 PM

So far, only Windows 10 is supported for NVME RAID boot on Threadripper. Is there driver support planned for Windows 7 or 8?

Windows 7 does not have native NVMe support, and Windows 8 is dead and doesn't support firmware upgrades of NVMe drivse, so most likely no.

Win7 got a patch KB2990941 to enable just that!

  Gotta love Microsoft, convince everyone you can only get things in Windows 10 then quietly slip them in to 7...
