OK, I will try 9.1 FPTw strictly following your instruction attached to 13 and 14 BIOS versions for F8. Than drivers 13, 14, and 15 as they were working in F6 Bios nicely.
And sure, I will not experiment myself.

Yes, you have to, since that is the only FPT that will work for your system
FPT is only used to flash in your ME Disabled FW you wanted, BIOS can be flashed with Qflash as mentioned (ie DO NOT flash BIOS region or entire BIOS with FPT, ONLY ME region >> FPTw.exe -me -f ME.bin)

Hi just got an idea about Marvell, can we check the version of OROM FOR Marvell in F6 and F8? Did they change?
I have feeling that it (with F6 BIOS) was working much better (higher speed)
And what about OROM for RST: I am checking now 13 and noticed this comparison:

Hi Mate,
I was really busy recently, and stopped our experiments on last stage.

I have considered and the previous bios, F6, which was modified only to support NVMe was the best one.
I would like to come back to it. If you had check my last post?

Can we come back to it and finish my MB case?

Hey! Sorry I missed your post in Sept!! But, sorry, my answer would be the same then as now..... I don't mess with Marvell. You can try latest version of UBU and see if you have luck
There is no such thing as higher speed on Marvell 5Gb/s ports, they are terrible performers, slow speed, stutter, drop out etc, especially with SSD

I already did many BIOS for you with many RST, please make up your mind, we can't mod your BIOS forever
And, as discussed, I think we put in the only and latest one possible for your chipset, you'll have to read back through all this mess and see

On your new post, sorry, not sure what you mean, I thought we was done with your BIOS long ago?

What does Qflash tell you when you try to flash stock F6? Show me image of error, if any

I did not try as per warning that bios starting from F7 can not be downgraded,
and somewhere before in this thread
you mentioned, that you will give me instruction how to do it another way, if needed.

Yes, but I wanted to know what it tells you, so I can advise "other way, if needed" Also, try to flash F6 using the DOS tool that comes with it too, and show me the warning given to you there as well (if it wont flash)

OK I will give a try to and let you know.
