|

|
||||
* There may be compatibility issues with some motherboards, such as **HP** or **DELL**. If there is no image from the BIOS, you can fine-tune the HDMI settings, but it is possible that the mass storage devices will not be available in the BIOS. In the latter case, [USB dynamic configuration](usb.md) will solve the problem.
|
||||
* While there is a Mini-PCIe slot in the V4 Plus, it was only designed for LTE modems. An NVME card will not work.
