hello, how can force the installation of intel nvme driver? the version 3 is not for download
If you should mean a specific and not a generic Intel NVMe driver, you can force the installation of an NVMe driver, which natively doesnāt support the specific NVMe Controllerās HardwareIDs, by using the "Have Disk" option and pointing to the matching *.inf file.
Please be more precise. What ido you mean with "version 3" and why are you searching for such version?

this driver version 64bit Win10 Samsung NVMe driver v3.2.0.1910 WHQL dated 09/19/2019
that I know, using manual installation, the problem comes with choosing the device, from a list of nvme intel. have to choose someone or is it indifferent?
another thing, today testing various drivers, the nvme of microsoft, samsung and ofa, trying conquered by you i find the system no longer bootable, crashes when loading windows
@pipes80 :
Attached is the desired 64bit Samsung NVMe driver v3.2.0.1910 WHQL for Win10 x64, but why do you prefer this driver, although a newer and probably better v3.3.0.2003 is available?
It probably doesnāt matter, because the INF file entries are valid for all listed Intel NVMe Controllers. While using a Samsung NVMe SSD, I always have chosen the "Intel(R) Solid-State Drive P3700/P3600/P3500/P3520/750 Series".
Did you disable the "Secure Boot" and "Fast Boot" options within the BIOS and the "Hibernate" option from within the OS before you started the driver update?

There is not a windows 10 version?
@popes80:
Of what? Win10 has a generic in-box NVMe driver, which works with all NVMe SSDs resp. with their NVMe Controllers.
I search the intel nvme version no samsung
Which one?
Why did you change your mind? You asked >here< explicitely for the Samsung NVMe driver v3.2.0.1910.
@pipes80
I think you should first inform yourself and read the forum a bitt more in-depth, since it is obvious you donāt even know what you are askingā¦

sorry, I read wrong, I had read that it was an Intel version, when it comes to the Samsung version
Is there an accepted power efficient nvme driver? Iām assuming that either they are all very similar or Samsung takes the lead here. They have been tested as having the most power efficient ssdās on the market. Iāve seen it mentioned you can load samsung or OFA drivers in my case a western digital nvme drive. Is there any issues with windows pop ups when using unsigned drivers? Is this a bad idea to change the driver on your boot drive, if is stops communicating you would use a rescue usb/load the old driver from usb? (windows 10)
@knowsthedose :
1. Until now I have not measured the power efficiency of the different NVMe drivers.
2. The mod+signed NVMe drivers, which I am offering within this Forum, are digitally signed and are accepted by the Windows OS. It is not even necessary to force their installation.
3. I never got a Windows popup during the use of a mod+signed OFA or Samsung NVMe driver. The only event I have seen was, that I was not able to boot into the OS.
4. In all these cases I was able to solve the problem (by disabling the "Fast Boot" option) or to repair the boot issue by using the advanced Boot Options via F8.
Thanks for the work! I always reference your work after buying new storage hardware (since 2013).
Question - for your new x570 build - why donāt you benchmark the AMD NVME drivers? Just curious.
@vicbyrd :
You obviously have overlooked >this< post, where I have compared the performance of an Intel RAID0 with the performance of an AMD RAID0 array by using the exactly same SSDs as array members. This was the only test, where I had an AMD NVMe RAID driver installed.
Since AMD doesnāt offer NVMe SSDs, the AMD NVMe drivers can only be used after having created an AMD NVMe RAID array. I only have created an AMD RAID0 array for test purposes, because my single (non-RAIDed) 1 TB Sabrent Rocket 4.0 gives my X570 chipset system a much better performance (and stability). You can find the related benchmark results within the start post of >this< thread.
Thanks for the links. I agree that I donāt need any form of RAID, the Sabrent stand alone will be plenty fast for my OS drive. Iāll use the stock Windows driver until Iām up and running on the new x570 setup and then use your modded Samsung driver from there. I always follow your lead for new system hardware (inadvertantly) - good to know Iām making the right choices. Thanks again.

I tried your Samsung generic mod drivers in my Western Digital SN750 Black, performance is similar to generic Microsoft one, but Western Digital Dashboard (similar to Samsung Magician) wonāt let me enable the āgaming modeā with your mod driver installed. Gaming mode is supposed to make the WD nvme faster.
Any tips to make the āgaming modeā work along with your driver???
Thanks in advance.
@vmanuelgm :
No, I have no idea how to persuade the WD SSD tool to enable the āGaming Modeā by customizing the Samsung NVMe driver.
By the way - I seriously doubt, that WDās Digital Dashbard can boost the performance of your WD SSD. It seems to be rather similar to Samsungās āMagicianā, which lets the benchmark tool measure the memory speed instead of the SSD speed.

The benefit of enabling Game mode is arbitrary. The setting effectively disables the energy saving mode (lower clockspeed) of the module.
Donāt think the difference would be noticeable.
I think Iāll need to create a new customized Win7 install disc - where I want to integrate the USB 3.0 drivers for Intel Z390 Chipset, the Microsoft NVMe drivers & patches/hotfixes and the original Samsung NVMe driver for my Samsung SSD 970 Evo Plus.
About integrating the NVMe drivers:
Does adding the Microsoft stuff (NVMe drivers, patches, hotfixes) negatively affect the function of the vendor-specific driver (Samsung NVMe driver). The Samsung NVMe driver shall be the main driver I want to use for my system, but I would still like to install/integrate the generic Microsoft stuff - like this:
Variant A: integrating the generic MS drivers/patches/hotfixes first and then integrating the Samsung driver into the Win7 installation image ā then installing Windows
Variant B: integrating the generic MS drivers/patches/hotfixes ONLY ā then installing Windows ā after Windows installation, run the Samsung NVMe driver executable to install the Samsung driver afterwards.
But if the presence of the generic MS stuff has any negative influence for the function and/or performance of the main driver (Samsung), then I will not add or install them in the first placeā¦
