I'm hoping it fixes the issues with the 990 Pro NVME drives..

I'm also curious to see if you have issues with those EVOs, like as in, is this a Samsung brand issue, or specifically the pro. Like I said above, I have a mix of 990evo and 990pro in the 129i7 machines from Minisforum, and those are just peachy. I really want this to work, it's an amazing...

Thanks, Magsy, Minisforum said to check the drive, and I'm like... I don't believe you. LOL I will grab a WD 4TB or something, to test, beat the crap out of it. Yes, it seemed like 3 Hyper-V Replicas running at the same time was all it took. It's like the addressing or something is off with...

So, under a load, even with Windows Server 2025 Feb ISO, this thing pukes back to the bios screen under a heavy load, like Hyper-V doing heavy replication. Opened a case with Minisforum, and they're trying to tell me I have a bad 990pro 4tb. I don't think that's the case, and I'm on BIOS V1.26...

There's a new bios update 1.26 for the MS-01. Waiting to see if it fixes that random reboot in Windows Server 2025 and back to the bios screen for no reason, when it reboots. Hope this fixes that.

So, today, the device is crashing, with no events in the Windows event log pointing to anything bad, and it's booting back to a bios screen as if it can't see the NVMe drive. Rebooting works for a bit, then crash-a-loo, back to the bios screen, no NVME. I sat and watched it, and it eventually...

I disabled the 2.5G NICs, since I'm only using the x710 with SFP+ modules, I also turned off the sound card, wifi, and a couple other devices that I knew I'd never use, just to keep the usage and footprint minimal, to not have to install the drivers. I'm guessing you'll get full PCIE 3 x4 speeds...

In the 3rd slot closest to the wifi adapter, I get 1700MB/s read and 462MB/s write. Didn't test the middle slot, but it appears every other reboot or so, I get full write speed of 6800. This is a weird one.

Ok, so after this last reboot after installing a few things, updates, etc, I am back at 7000M read, and 460MB write, that seems weird. This is dicey for sure.

Wow, what a wonderful little machine, to say the least! This is an absolutely fantastic little home virtualization server. It may be overkill for some, but not me. I will max it out, in fact, I am willing to test different things to get this NVMe speed on this 990 pro closer to where it should...
