Microsoft has been using an old technology called iSCSI in their NVMe storage drivers with your NVMe drives... slowing down 4k read & write performance.

What does this mean?

• Slower loading times, slower saving.

• Overall lag & lag spikes in various things like gaming & video editing

• You never get the speed performance the drives have.

The good news:

Solidigm released a driver to fix it, and the tweaking community modified it to work on ALL drives. No more waiting on Microsoft to figure out their NVMe driver compatibility issues.

Link in my bio to the TechPowerUp post that has all the details... but this is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I've verified this on over 37 differrent systems and confirmed it works and is stable.

After the change, everything is faster, and your drives will now perform at the rated speeds from the manufacturer.

wow!
