It would be silly if it didnt considering even intel 10gen do not support pcie4.
Being supported is a one thing i wanna see the benchmarks and loading times. 😛

Says both my drives are supported one is a 2TB Intel 660p and the other is a 1TB MSI Spatium m480, will be interesting to see how the slower Intel drive compares to the Spatium.

Same!
Looks like I could be on w12 after xmas depending on what games come out that are direct storage optimised.

Imagine having to wait 5-10 seconds before your savegame has loaded... first world problems?

If you mean DirectStorage itself, it's also available on Windows 10. Hell, it was originally announced for Windows 10 before Windows 11 was even a thing. Microsoft have put some FUD out there about how you'll get the "best" experience on Windows 11, but I'm willing to bet that there will be zero difference in the real world. I guess we'll know in October.

Windows Settings --> Apps --> Apps & Features --> Windows Security --> Advanced Options --> Repair
&
Turning off "Real-Time Protection" In Windows Security --> Virus & Threat Protection Settings and then retrying the update fixed it for me

You have to update/install through the MS store, the info on compatible devices is accessed through gamebar/settings NOT windows/settings

thats an option, and you turned it on.

I had to revert from 22H2 because there's no way to disable the Touch Keyboard and handwriting service, it's all been unified into one service that controls all input in 22H2, very annoying as the touch keyboard causes crashes with several apps I use regularly, it's a shame as I like the new task manager in 22H2 and overall it feels a lot snappier.

I'm running 2x 980 Pro 1TB in Raid 0, but its showing it as "Not NVME." Hope they fix it soon. In bios its set to Nvme Raid mode.

Imagine actually saying something relevant.
This is not about just a games load times or game saves.
Some games mods, and large assets are in the documents folder with game saves.
And NVME makes a big difference for me in loading those.
But hey, you already seem to know everything. We are just being needy 1st world douche bags.

Are you using RAPID mode or are you using StoreMI?

Time is money, money is energy.... umm... I forget the quote but somewhere there was meant to be girls.

It will never support raid.

Nope i did not and it is a bug, Microsoft confirmed it to me and they pushed a fix in the dev channel

I don't have that update, and i just checked that folder but it was empty, but thanks for help anyway 🙂
The bug hasnt happened in few days now so i will just hope it doesn't come back anytime soon, temp fix is to restart windows explorer from task manager
or wait till they bring the proper fix in Build 25136
Fixes
[General]
Addressed an issue which was leading to some PCs being erroneously detected as tablets. When this happened, compact mode and the option to hide checkboxes in File Explorer wouldn’t take effect.

My Samsung 970 Pro M2 Gen3 showed up as unsupported, it transpires that Samsung's very own NVMe driver version 3.3 isn't supported. I had to uninstall this so I am now running off Microsoft's own Windows 11 driver. Now I am supported. Kinda makes sense given the last update from Samsung was quite some time ago and the later 980's don't require the driver.
