ASRock Z77 Extreme6 support Intel SSD 750 Series

[KenZen2B]

I understand that with the release of Intel's SSD 750 Series SSDs motherboards need UEFI BIOS with proper support for NVMe in order to boot from the SSD.

Does ASRock Z77 Extreme6 with BIOS 2.8 support use and boot from Intel SSD 750 Series SSDs ?

ASRock's web site has not been updated with this information (as of this date of post).

I am waiting for information before deciding between SATA and PCIe.

The 750 series are not good boot drives. They move large files quickly but are slower when it comes to loading many smaller files.

After posting this question and not getting a good answer, I emailed ASRock and received a response.

The response I received stated that YES indeed, the ASRock Z77 Extreme6 does support the Intel SSD 750 Series UEFI BIOS with proper support for NVMe.

ASRock (asrockamerica.com) email response included an attached Z77EXT6(P2.80E)ROM.zip file.

I have the same board and I cant get my new 750 ssd to be read as a bootable drive! Could you send me the bios? I emailed ASRock and all they said was that "Windows 10 isn't supported." You'd be an absolute life saver!!!
