This hidden Windows 11 trick unlocks SSD speed boost for NVMe drives

Microsoft recently started offering users of modern SSDs an option to significantly increase their drive speeds. Specifically, this involves a performance boost for NVMe drives.

NVMe stands for Non-Volatile Memory Express and is a particularly fast protocol for SSDs that communicates directly with the processor via the PCIe interface. Because of this, NVMe SSDs outperform conventional SATA SSDs. Until now, however, Windows didn’t offer a native driver for NVMe drives, which limited their performance.
