Not really, I am running 4 x on an AsRock NVME expansion card (I like it better then the MSI bundled one) on my MEG Creation X399 and it was pretty straight forward. Enable bifurcation on your PCI slot to 4x4x4x4, save reboot back into BIOS, then enabled RAID, add your drives as members of the array, then reboot and install windows (having your driver on a USB thumb drive). I don't think it's any more wonky than Intels vroc, and we don't have that stupid key to worry about.NVME and AMD is funky - to get raid NVME on my x399 you have to go deep in the bios and turn it on in some obtuse setting.

The 12.1 firmware update was destructive, I'd expect similar results for 12.2 unless the manufacturer noted otherwise.

Thanks buddy! Translated the readme:sure thing! a japanese company called CFD also sells an nvme drive which uses the phison e12 controller, and they posted a firmware update tool on their site for their ssds. i downloaded that from here and used the setting "DLMC" for function, and "activated at the next reset" for parameter action within the program. once it was complete i just restarted and the firmware was updated. hope this helps!
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07L6GF81L/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Just dropped in price to $144.99. I see no reason to not buy these instead. Same controller, has higher listed speeds, they have their own firmware software and 5 year warranty over 3 years.
I felt a similar way when I picked up my 970 evo. I really wanted to test out my 10gbit fiber connection to my server though, and bought one. Besides transfers over that, it feels identical to my 850 evo sata ssd and I regret purchasing it. Unless you have a use case for processing large amounts of data (I've found gaming to show nearly no benefit) save your money.I totally don't need one of these.
But I want one.
I'm nowhere near using the full capacity of my 2 x 2TB SATA SSDs, and my 512GB 950 Pro is only about 1/3 full.
I hate this forum sometimes, lol.
Thanks buddy! Translated the readme:

With that said I guess if one was installing a new system, one would then need to use this as a second drive and not the main OS drive then if we wanted to update the firmware.
For a gaming system. Would it be best to use this drive as the os or game drive?
I was originally thinking game drive but wondering if it would be better to have the os running off it.. ??
Ok so install it as an os drive and try and flash it to the latest firmware? Hope it dont wipe it.. if so just reinstall os.
The flash program will work if the drive is an OS drive?

I was replying to, and quoted, Lateralus. Who had mentioned he already had three ssds and was nowhere near close to filling them. So my post was specific to that scenario. I absolutely think everyone should be running on ssds for their systems and games...but I don't think the upgrade from a sata ssd to nvme ssd would serve Lateralus any benefit.Absolutely terrible logic. Save your money? You mean, don't buy an SSD ... ever? This SSD is so cheap yet so incredibly fast it defies logic. If you go compare this drive and it's cost to a wide gamut of SSD's on the market its not only faster but cheaper than many of the ultra old and slower drives that are still out there cost nearly as much if not more. How you could even possibly suggest this very near-sighted.
What would you honestly have them buy? Care to elaborate and share? Please, link us ... anything you want. Model, price and performance and explain to us why that would be a better buy over this drive.
It's a massive 1tb NVMe for $135 that clearly holds a world top 3 spot performance wise. Zero logic applies here. You just buy it.
And I think the community has already spoken. I'm fairly sure dozens upon dozens along with many unaccounted people have made this purchase.
Something broke, No q1t1 write.okay as requested up thread - 12.1 firm ware - TR1950x x399 mono - 1 TB Inland NVME - I set the Seq to 64/16 threads to push it - here are the results

14 degrees celsius = 57.2 degrees fahrenheitInteresting. My SSD came with the 12.2 firmware:

I hoped updated to 12.2 might clear up my issue.
I am using it as an OS drive, and also installing steam and my games on the same array. With that said, I am also backing up with Acronis my specific game folders to my unraid server for safe keeping and future formats.
You could also boot your current system up with one drive at a time and flash them all one by one, which is what I did. THEN build your array once you are ready to commit.

Otherwise for someone building a pc, upgrading due to space concerns, or those who have an actual use case for the crazy speed, this is absolutely a great buy. I was never arguing against it.
What is your motherboard and what's in the occupied slots?How are you guys getting 3,000+ MB/s writes? The drive specs list 1900MB/s max write and I'm getting anywhere from 1400-1900MB/s....

If you are using the GA Z270n gaming 5 is the m2 nvme connector on the back?
What are the drives temps?
BTW, Slickdeals is reporting a big sale on the Sabrent Rocket NVMe SSDs which are Phison E12 based.
https://slickdeals.net/f/12967240-s...b-nvme-usb-3-1-external-160-2tb-300-much-more
With discount codes, a Sabrent 1 TB Rocket NVMe SSD drive is $124.99 shipped, $10 cheaper than the MicroCenter price on the Inland.
Does everyone want to unload these or what?
Reserved the Inland Premium 1TB but Corsair MP510 960GB and this Sabrent 1 TB Rocket have 5 year warranty..
I plan to clean install but lots of folks mention Sabrent 1TB Rocket having issues with cloning, is this specific to this drive or do all Phison E12 lack 512e?
