NVMe Windows 支持情况

From NVMe 官网：

Windows Driver – Microsoft Inbox

• Closed source driver (Microsoft)
• Inbox driver to Windows operating systems (not available as standalone driver)
• NVMe 1.0e compliant (no support for multi-initiator, NS mgmt, controller list, etc.)
• Link: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/mt718131(v=vs.85).aspx

Windows Driver – OFA Reference Driver

• Open source driver (Reviewing Companies: HGST, Intel, Samsung)
• Reference NVMe driver… to be taken “as is” or modified to fit the needs of any NVMe SSD IHV
• NVMe 1.2 compliant (multi-initiator, NS mgmt, controller list)
• Link: https://www.openfabrics.org/index.php/working-groups.html or https://www.openfabrics.org/index.php/working-groups-overview.html#nvmewin

要想Windows下自由地使用NVMe1.2,还是用OFA开源的吧。

另外，目前来看支持NVMe1.2的主控还不多，有 Marvell Storage SSD 88SS1092，SMI 2600 Controller等。

看吧，NVMe马上就会爆发的。

正所谓

看清趋势心不慌，打好基础再声张

存储还看NVMe, 鸡鸣（2016）狗跳（2017）要争气
