your system will not support nvme boot as it lacks the required bios code for this (it will work as a data drive)

 

your only possible solution for your nvme drive is a software bootloader such as DUET/REFIND or clover, search this forum for duet/refind posts

 

personally i now recommend a simple SATA ssd as a boot drive over the software nvme loaders for most people, however if you want to boot from nvme on a 8300 elite the software nvme boot loader is a cost effective option
