[SOLVED] 970 evo plus drivers

[Bob1nba]

I'm going to be installing a 1tb 970 evo plus nvme tomorrow I just have a few questions. I read in a review of it that there is an optional driver you can use that helps improve the performance slightly than the default windows driver. Is that necessary and if so, where do I go about getting that correct driver?

It's not necessary.
You can get it from Samsung (970 evo is being manufactured by Samsung, if you didn't know).
Scroll down to the bottom of the page and find nvme driver download link.

Windows has built in drivers. You can install Samsung magician to upgrade the firmware where applicable.
