I would like to add a SSD for the boot partition to my older motherboard, to improve speed.
I use Win7 64, but I wish to upgrade to Win10.
My ASUS M5A88-V does not have an M.2 interface.
I am wondering if a PCIe adapter would work : SSD should be the boot partiton.
The BIOS version is 1701 (AMI) ; it seems that this has not UEFI (but I know only very few things -- I made some search, but do not fully understand the implications).
Chipset on ASUS M5A88-V is : AMD 880G/SB850
Please kindly help me !
