Hi,

I wanna use my new Samsung 960 Evo as the Windows/boot drive. The BIOS already recognized it correctly. However, I've heard that there are some settings in the BIOS you have to change before using NVMe M.2 SSD's as boot drive before you can install with a Windows installation USB drive. Since this is the first M.2 drive in my life, I'd like know what to change in the BIOS settings.

If it is your only drive, there is nothing you need to do.
If you got other m.2, ssd or hdd's connected you only need to select the right boot drive in the bios. (or just disconnect them under windows install)
