This is the way how to make your windows boot time faster.

Fiddle with BIOS, get free BSOD.
This doesn't really work. Most PCs are UEFI now anyways so...

So, do it like this in reverse way. change uefi to lagecy and back to uefi again.

fuck 2.5'' ssd and sata bullshit

pci-e ssds for the win.

Yeah, that would be great if....

My damn MB had a fucking M.2 slot

Using fairly cheap adapters you can connect them to PCI-E slots.

just get the cheapest adapter you can find with room for it.
i believe it's just a passive pass through.. there are plenty of theese adapters, and even m.2 slot to pci-e port lol
the m.2 is just a a port, there is no new protocols or anything fancy in it, just a different form of the pci\sata sockets combined

Woah what. That's pretty cool

the only twist is.. your mobo may not want to boot from it, maybe there are work arounds but i am not sure how difficult is to implement it..
pci-e drives exist, even pci ones exist.. (there existed ram drives powered by an external source) they were used areas where insanely fast storage is great use..
between PCI-e and m.2 nvme ssds the only difference is "phisical appearence" some m.2 ssds actually come with the pci-e adapter lol
with the m.2 slot, it helped made pci-e\nvme drives a regular consumer option, and as a secondary effect, mobos that have this slot do support boot from pci-e

This.

Also get an SSD.

for boot. get an ssd for boot. a small one will work (no need for 400GB one). do a clean install, and put the system on that drive and all your files on a large non-ssd (3TB seems to be the most popular option).
