Not without manualy modifying your BIOS. (it is possible, there are guides on how to do it)

NVME is officialy supported since Z97 but not all NVME work even on that.

Hi all,

I have an asus Z87 Pro motherboard and I was wondering if I colud get an nvme to pci-e adaptor to boot from an  m.2 nvme drive. I've read that boot prom PCI-e devices is only supported from z97 chipsets onwards, however I was looking at the ducumentation on my mobo and it says this:

Does it means I can boot from an m.2 nvme ssd?

Leave it to you to turn a perfectly harmless thread about NVMe and Z87 into a talk about personal finance :D

Yes to nvme booting, but raid0 nvme ssds I don't believe can be done.

RAID NVMe can be done if the board supports it.

 

Linus has a server or two that have some NVMe drives in RAID.
