Hi everyone,
I can't boot from M.2 SSD connected to PCI-E via an adapter. Does this motherboard support boot from PCI-E slot? |

I would send a support ticket to ASRock and ask:
https://event.asrock.com/tsd.asp They will know for certain and what steps you need to follow if it is possible. |

The PCIE slot on the board has only one PCI Express 2.0 lane, for an M.2, you must have at least 4 lanes, so it will not work.
The M.2 key E slot, is meant for Wifi cards, it cannot handle an M.2 |
