Or perhaps more specifically, the length of the text of each of the boot order entries, when using an M.2 SSD as the OS drive, in UEFI booting mode. For example, my boot order entry is:
Windows Boot Manager Samsung 960 EVO
I noticed in the Boot Manager feature screen, which allows you to enter the text for the boot device, it is limited in length. All I could enter was, "Windows Boot Man".
The best I could do now, as I've been running an Optane accelerated SATA SSD as the OS drive recently for testing purposes, is to put my original 960 EVO OS drive installation back into this PC, and check the results with the F11 screen. That only gives me two entries, but we'll see.

I'd like to pull the m.2 drive out and see how the boot menu behaves, but to be able to access the drive in the back of the motherboard the entire thing needs to be taken apart and I have liquid cooling installed, etc. Too much of a hassle |
