Weird thing, you don't tin pads if you not going to install anything on them, maybe was installed and removed?

Yeah, I wonder if NVMe inject will work on this one. I have it, but I'm not gonna flash until I hear from others that it's working.
It would be nice if it does. Granted, there's already a way to get NVMe SSDs to boot within a classic Mac Pro—but, of course, it's unorthodox.
10.6 don't have TRIM and it's a mirror/RAID1, the interesting thing is more than 1500 read speed.That’s some awfully slow write speed. I guess RAID 0 would just be good if you need faster read.

Snow leopard (10.6.8) does have TRIM however on non Apple SSDs you generally have to use a 3rd party application to enable it/patch the kext responsible for it.
once TRIM is enabled its a good idea to run fsck -fy in Single user mode to force OS X to trim unused blocks. this can help recover disk speed on an SSD thats been run without trim for a long time (note this dosent work if the disk is APFS formatted)

Anyone has Mac Pros 1,1, 2,1 or 6,1?
I'd like BootROM dumps from them, I only have one for 6,1, none for 1,1 and 2,1.
heres a couple Stock BootROM dumps of my Xserve1,1 and MP2,1 (its a flashed 1,1), from my Microcode shenanigans
These are SSUBX blades, so Samsung/Apple. Just re-checked, and they do in fact show TRIM Support status of "Yes" in System Profiler. Is there anything I can try remotely, since I don't have hands on the machine (to go into Single User mode) right now?
Added to the stash. It's half the size of 4,1/5,1 ones, but seems the same basic structure. Thx!

Your post about better RAID performance with dual low cost PCIe cards with 138.0.0.0.0 is correct. @fhturner tested it now after I did his BootROMs. AJA with Dual SSBUX 512 RAID1:

I don't think that will cause a problem, SMC controller ROM is located in the micro-controller and independent from the BootROM.

Chipmunk has a Molex version, but I don't think they tested with MP5,1 ones. The Korean one don't have a molex one.
I already know the pinout of the SPI-Flash signals on the FRANK connector, that was easy, but I want the whole thing with full LPC access.

I never checked this in detail, but If I remember correctly, it's not the RAM that takes a long time to scan, but the PCIe and drives.

NVRAM stores more things in the private part of it. Your full name, your Wi-Fi credentials, the previous UUID from your Mac, etc.
How did you install it though? Via the built-in update mechanism or did you download the full installer? At least in the past, fw updates are only available in the full installer.No new Bootrom update for me with this Beta (Still on 138.0.0.0.0)

Anything else noteworthy?
