Any idea why there is no recommendation for NVME/M.2 hard drives now that Unibeast/High Sierra supports them?
Id like my boot drive to be running off an M.2
Can someone recommend an M.2 drive for the ASUS ROG Strix Z270I?
Hi. I just started experimenting with a High Sierra boot on 960 EVO NVMe formatted as HFS. The boot time is very slow, 5 mins maybe more. Boot seems to take a normal amount of time with the Unibeast USB plugged.
[UPDATE]
For those with slow boot issues or generally anyone who wants to do a...

Thanks!

Hi, I have updated directly from Sierra to High Sierra, chose to opt-out of APFS and stick with HFS+.
Everything went mostly fine, however I have noticed a very poor system perfomance, especially when writing data to disk. I ran Blackmagic speed test and the write speeds are only ~200MB/s...

I followed the procedure here, but no luck getting my drive to appear in disk utility. I obtained IONVMeFamily.kext, and tried to install it, but it didn't appear in my extensions folder prior to running the RehabMan patch. I wonder if that means anything.
Please help.

I have recently purchased a Samsung 850 EVO 512GB SSD and want to replace my existing slow SSD with this one. But I read High Sierra will have native NVMe SSD support, making Hackintosh easier to install. I'm contemplating whether I should return the Samsung EVO and wait for few months to...
