Hi

I have the Fatal1ty X99X Killer, and have checked the storage compatibility page here:
http://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/Fatal1ty%20X99X%20Killer/?cat=Storage

This lists two variants of Samsung's SM951, specifically the 256 Gb and 512 Gb AHCI versions, MZHPV256HDGL and MZHPV512HDGL.

However it does not list the NVMe version, MZVPV512HDGL, which I am interesting in buying, but only if I will be able to use and boot from it.

I have updated to the 1.90 BIOS, which the BIOS page:
http://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/Fatal1ty%20X99X%20Killer/?cat=Download&os=BIOS

notes "
Add NVME support".

Please can you confirm if NVMe versions of the Samsung SM951 are compatible?

Thanks

EDIT: I could also ask about the Samsung PM953, but since this has only just been announced I'll understand if it hasn't been tested yet LOL

You will have to wait for ASRock_TSD on this one, Parsec and I do not work for ASRock and so can only speak for things we have personally tested. I know Parsec has a socket 2011 system and a SM951 but I think his is the AHCI model. The AHCI models work fine as boot devices provided the BIOS version supports it. I suspect the NVMe versions should work too but without having one to test I cannot say for certain.
