Hi guys,
To be honest with you, I am lost. I have currently explored most NVME & Windows related topics already on MacRumors, but I am just not finding that specific answer, or I am maybe interpreting it differently.
My setup is is a converted 4.1 to 5.1 Mac Pro with:
It seems that user cococheaf has managed to install a legacy boot version of Windows 10 on his NVME blade (https://forums.macrumors.com/thread...nvme-m-2-on-mac-pro-5-1.2181495/post-27992582) using just a single Windows DVD, Metal GPU and 1x NVME blade installed.
So, I am trying to attempt the same! But first I have some questions in general:
- In which format should I format the NVMe blade for the windows 10 install?
- In which slot should I use the kroM.2 PCIe adapter? I have my GTX 680 in slot 1. Should it be slot 2?
- Will I be able to install windows using the GTX680 or should I use my original GT120?
Since I do not yet have the NVME blade, I need to wait before installing all of it. I will let you know the outcome. Do you think I will manage?
