Dear Sirs

I have Asus Sabertooth fx 990 R2.0 gen2. I updated new bios (2901) which offers NVMe support.
Can I use the Samsung 950 Pro 512GB as a system disk (via adapter m2-PCIe)?

Kinda odd since we have no m.2 port.

Following.

Not really worth the effort with PCIe 2.0 the speed gain will be negligible

Yeah I didn't really think it would be that great but still.

Thanks.
