How likely is it that ASUS will release a UEFI update for the Maximus VII MBs that will support NVMe?
The reason I ask is that I recently read
this X-bit review of the Plextor M6e (the only PCIe M.2 card currently widely available), that had it lagging
behind higher-end SATA-based SSDs in most real-world applications (under the current AHCI framework). Everything I've read suggests that NVMe will give SATAe/M.2 drives a substantial speed-boast over AHCI, but lacking that boast I'm probably better off sticking with SATA in the mean time (undercutting one of the selling points of M.2-supporting MBs).
