<pre>I used only diskdrake. parted and gparted would report errors. I had to
cancel to get out of the error message. The module nvme loaded as enabled is
from modifying /etc/modprobe.preload with nvme. I also had created a new ISO
and modified this file and it does indeed enable it upon boot. lsmod | grep
nvme
does report that nvme and nvme-core modules are loaded.
I just used the Windows diskmngt tools to shrink by 160GB for OMLX 3.0.
I will be testing that shortly. So now there exist 160GB unallocated storage.
The hard drive is using a special RAID configuration. There is a special BIOS
patch that provide a AHCI support. The RAID mode should be the NVME mode.
NVME is where the SSD drive market is headed for laptops and desktops.
