It's alive alright, thanks to this my x9dri-f got upgraded with the asus gen4 card. Working flawlessly for a few months now
Hello!
I am attempting to get x9dri-f to recognize a 970 evo 2TB. I have already added a BIOS, following the instructions. The result is strange: NVMe is visible only sometimes in the bios. I think it may be possible with a cold start.
I would be very grateful if someone would share a copy of your modded bios with a bifurcation for x9dri-f

Hi All. I come here looking for some help. I'm trying to achieve the same thing as the rest of you and get my machine to boot via nvme.
I have:
Supermicro X9DRi-F Rev 1.11A
WD Green SN350 NVMe - 2TB - Gen3 PCIe, QLC, M.2 2280 - WDS200T3GG0C
Cheap Amazon Quad Nvme PCIe Adapter, RIITOP 4 Port M.2 NVMe SSD to PCI-E 4.0/3.0 x 16
Things I've done so far - I've modded bios per the guide referenced at the beginning of this thread...revision 3.4
File Name:X9DRi0_630.zip
Revision:3.4
I believe i've done this correctly...as there is no difference between supermicro's bios and my modded version other than the driver insert at the bottom of the area described in the tutorial. I used the larger driver.
I guess I'm lost from there - there doesn't appear to be any difference in my BIOS Settings, nor can I install to my drive (not visible) after booting windows from a usb stick. What indicators in my BIOS am I looking for....or maybe my the configuration of hardware I have doesn't work for this. Just looking for some tips as I feel like google's forsaken me at this point.

I've been banging my head against the wall thinking about getting another adapter....but i figured I'd check with some folks here first. If I do go this route...any suggestions?I only have the quad adapter
Only ones I have used that I can speak for are these.
I'm on Slot six with my card - it's the first x16 slot - Bifurication is set to 4x4x4x4 but i've tried without bifurication as well. I even moved the m.2 to another slot on the card to test.
The other thing you can try just as a verification. You can open the modded bios up and verify the nvme driver is inserted/saved into it. That is if you have the original file you used to flash available. Not implying you did it wrong I just know I myself had forgotten atleast once to hit insert after loading the module.
