Problem with Smasung V-NAND 950 PRO m.2

Hello,

I have a problem with Samsung V-NAND 950 PRO M.2.
Recently i've purchased two Samsung V-NAND 950 PRO M.2 with PCIe Card > 1x internal NVMe M.2 NGFF Key M 110mm (by delock) adapter.
I've tried to install this ssd on two servers and one pc.

Server 1:
OS: Windows Server 2008
Motherboard: intel server board s5500hcv
Processor: Intel Quad-Core Xeon E5530

On this server, I've seen in "Device Manager" the "unknown drive" with the yellow exclamation mark.
I've tried to find the driver for Windows 2008 server but with no success.
Also, I could not seen the Samsung V-NAND 950 PRO ssd in BIOS.

I just wanted to migrate the OS and drive 5 to SSD or create a partition with that ssd.

------------

Server 2:
OS: Windows Server 2008 R2
Motherboard: Intel S2600CP
Processor: Intel Xeon E5 2679

I've tried to find the driver for Windows 2008 R2 server but with no success.
On this server, when I inserted the Card into motherboard, the server start normally, but I can't even seen the card there..
I could not detect Samsung V-NAND 950 PRO, does not appear in bios or in device manager or somewhere else.

--------

Pc :
Os: Windows 10
Motherboard: Dell Inc. 084J0R-A00
Processor: Intel Core i3 3220

When I inserted the card, I saw it in Device manager, disk management, but not bios.
After that I installed samsung v-nand driver, saw the disk in BIOS too.. Tried to migrate the os on the disk, no success this time.

What happened, if I've started the pc, the disk was there, I could do everything with it.. but after restart, the disk just disappeared, couldn't find it anywhere.. but if I shut down the PC, and start again, the disk appeared.. if I restart, disappeared, so strange!


I literally don't know what to do, just hope to get some help from here.

I think I'm missing something and don't know what!

For NVME to be bootable it requires a compatible UEFI bios. Server 1 and the Dell pc are too old, your best hope with those would be using it as fast storage and won't be bootable. Server 2 might work, seen a couple of people got NVME to be bootable with an updated bios and using the EFI optimized boot option in the bios.

It's strange, cause with the dell pc I was closest, I saw the ssd in bios, found the driver, can use it, but it keep appearing and disappearing.. I can only use it when I start pc, if I restart it, I can't see it anymore..
..
And in Server 2, can't even appear in Disk Management/ Device manager/ bios... don't know why.. but the server can't see the ssd.
