Tech media sources reveal that some tech-savvy netizens have conducted hands-on tests and discovered a notable performance boost in random read and write speeds after forcibly activating native NVMe driver support in Windows 11. This improvement is particularly pronounced in 4K random read and write operations. In contrast, the enhancement in sequential read and write speeds is relatively modest. NVMe SSDs have firmly established themselves as the market standard; however, both Windows 10 and Windows 11 systems still interact with them via a SCSI emulation layer. While this setup guarantees compatibility, it also places an additional burden on the CPU and introduces higher latency, thereby constraining the NVMe SSDs' theoretical performance potential. Microsoft has addressed this issue by introducing a native NVMe driver in Windows Server 2025, which eliminates the need for the SCSI emulation layer. The company touts an impressive IOPS performance increase of up to 80%. Although a handful of users have managed to enable the native NVMe driver on Windows 11 by tweaking the registry and have reported performance enhancements, the feature remains unstable at present and carries risks such as the potential for hard drives to become inaccessible. Consequently, it is not advisable for everyday users to activate this feature in their regular computing routines.
