The more Fedora users give UEFI a try, the better it will work for linux in 2020. It may be better to experiment with UEFI while you can still get hardware with BIOS than wait for 2020 to start figuring out EUFI. Dell has a white paper <en.community.dell.com/techcenter/extras/m/ white_papers/20444677/download>. This document is aimed more at data centers, but it is interesting to read the section on memory limits for storage devices and Dell's use of UEFI for NVMe devices. https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/ 000005967/memory-and-storage/enthusiast-ssds.html https://www.kingston.com/us/ssd/resources/dcp1000-boot-configurations-and- recommendations -- George N.
