Using M.2 NVMe SSD with adapter at PCIE 3.0 X16 slot while the motherboard uses DDR3 RAM?
I am able to use M.2 NVMe SSD as boot drive at the PCIe 3.0 X16 slot by an adapter with my TC-885. The TC-885 is rather new, using DDR4 RAM and it has M.2 slot on the motherboard by default.
Just wonder anyone who tried to just use PCIE 3.0 x16 and M.2 NVMe SSD adapter on older machines that use DDR3 memory without M.2 slot on the motherboard?
Too bad that my DDR3 machine must use a graphics card for display, x16 slot already occupied, so I cannot try that myself.
If it cannot be used as a boot drive on DDR3 machine, is it possible using it as data drive?
