Here's mine. C: 970 Pro-1. H: 970 Pro-2, g: 970 Evo Plus. All 1TB. These are even scarier than the original tests I did. My 4K results are appalling. I would have hoped overall these drives would be closer to the advertised speeds. Yes, I know the speeds they advertise are max and rare but I'm at about 60% sequential?
I fear it might be connected to M2_1, though unless there's a reliable way of finding out without pulling the PC apart, I'll do that tomorrow and find out for sure.
My Creator X299 is BIOS v1.1. There is a later version. I'll try upgrading that too.
The MB schematic doesn't tell me what slot the drive is in. There are two 970 Pro's... Which one is in M2_1? Also can't tell from the BIOS. The drives have the same name. I can't see into the case, and I have to move another case out of the way to get into this case... It's too late to do it tonight I'll get on to it tomorrow.

Yes, the boot drive is definitely connected to M2_1. And I know why I did that. Because that port is behind the video card every time I want to remove the drive I have to remove the GPU, which means pulling the case out.
Since all drives have to be disconnected every time you install Windows from scratch (which I do twice yearly), and the bottom two ports are easily accessible I put the boot drive on M2_1.
Either way, my speeds are slower than those of other people's tests here. The drives aren't very old, even the ones on M2_2 and M2_3. Quite disappointing.
Updating the chipset drivers or BIOS didn't make any difference.
When I installed the Samsung NVMe driver, it changed my driver order around in Disk Management, Macrium Reflect, MiniTool Partition Wizard etc.
please help me whenever i try to open the .exe with driver nothing happens but when i click other exe i can install them normally
