[Solved] IONVMeFamily Pike R. Alpha Patches - Not needed in HS 10.13.6?

[Blindedbythelights]

Hi

I've got a load of IONVMeFamily Pike R. Alpha Patches in my config file and since I'm now on 10.13.6 do I actually need these anymore? I run a Samsung Evo boot SSD, a Samsung Pro SSD and also have a M.2 Western Digital NVMe black (not doing anything but hoping to clone current boot disk to this drive).

It says on here: https://github.com/RehabMan/patch-nvme

10.13 High Sierra
With 10.13, Apple has fixed their IONVMeFamily.kext and now it supports 512 byte block sizes natively. This means for many NVMe SSDs, you do not need these patches. Still, the special patches for LiteOn/Plextor/Hynix SSDs may be necessary (see above).

Thanks for any advice!
