    Send @Prema a direct message on here and be patient - great guy that will probably respond when he gets time!

    I guess the cost is the return shipping?

    @jiffs I'm new here and I couldn't figure out how to send a DM to @Prema but I guess he'll notice the mentions here sometime.

    @Meaker@Sager That would be the cost for the service of installing the BIOS, not shipping, they made it clear.

    If by any chance @Prema you're still around, I have the same request as dalts and the others :oops:
    I'm in France and we don't have official partner over here. I'd like the bios for the clevo P750ZM in order to activate the nvme bios support.

    @Prema
    Hello and good evening,

    is it possible to send me the modified BIOS for NVME support n170SD / XMG A705? That'll be extremely helpful. Thanks so much in advance.

    Best regards

    Hi @Prema , by any chance do you still have the bios for P750ZM? I recently got a 970 Evoplus and the default bios does not seem to detect it.

    It's not an unlockable feature, it has to be added.

    Yeah, I know. That’s why I’m still looking for Prema custom BIOS. But looks like there’s no chance to get anymore

    Yes, most people are better off returning the drive and going for SATA, it's better value generally anyway.

    Yeah i know this is raising a thread from the dead. But I think it's worth to say, that using a random NVMe Samsung OEM SSD in a P750ZM/P751ZM is possible without much hassle.
    BIOS Version is Prema Mod v2.

    PM981a Crystal Diskmark.png

    The PCIe2.0 limit is pretty obvious. But who cares for that? That's not what i want an SSD for... :)

    (It is a Samsung PM981a 1TB. I'm running Windows 10 on it. I simply cloned it from another SATA GPT drive, the 850 EVO)

    The 4k 1qd is going to make it feel snappy or not for sure.

    Hi @Prema, I've got a P750ZM and just recently bought a 970 Evo Plus as the previous SSD was filling up. I heard you have a bios that enables it as currently it isn't detected in the bios. Would it be possibly to get a copy of it for my personal use? Thanks!

    I have a p751zm z97 where i'm stuck with a freshly bought nvme undetectable from BIOS for boot.

    Thank you so much!

    Hello @Pedro Freitas,
    which NVME do you try to use? Is it GPT formatted?
    With Premav2 it should work like a charm. I think by highlighting, like you did, you should get it soon. :)

    That's the speed limit of the bus so not bad.

    Those results look exactly like i would expect them for a decent PCIe-NVMe SSDs on the ZM. Have fun with that! :)

    Crazy to think even then 3x SATA drives could saturate the bus.

    You need 5 posts and to wait until midnight to send private messages.

    I believe they do, yes.
