Most Haswell refresh H97/Z97 etc. or newer can boot from NVMe drives either via a PCIe adapter or an onboard M.2 slot. Many are using those right now as NVMe SSD prices get lower and lower to almost Sata SSD levels. A 512 GB HP EX 950 sells for 88 dollars right now on Newegg. It is TLC Nand flash but that is still a great deal if you need a larger boot drive. The 5 year warranty is about two years longer than most Sata based SSDs will give you. So you really can't lose here. In 5 years from now NVMe read speeds will probably be around 8GB/s or more so you'd want to upgrade by then.Any NVMe (boot capable) preferably NVMe on the system board systems out there? Been tried?
