   My classic ThinkPad T43 (from 2005) used IDE/PATA storage. That's slow and unreliable, especially after the PATA->SATA bridge IBM included.

   Instead, let's use NVMe SSDs in the ExpressCard/34 slot!
   I modified the BIOS to include a custom Option ROM, which can translate the BIOS disk accesses into NVMe.

   Windows XP, Debian 12, MS-DOS 6 can boot fine from NVMe!
