I know a lot of us are looking at these drives, and just wanted to let you know that it's working great in a hackintosh. This post has information about the kext. I used this Lycom DT-120 4x PCIe adapter as well, although I actually installed OS X while the card was in my motherboard's built-in M.2 slot, and then transferred to the Lycom adapter once it arrived.
I cloned my data over from a Samsung 850 Evo. The process went reasonably smooth, with the usual hackintosh hiccups to get past. One thing that seems strange is that it doesn't show up in System Information. The NVMe section shows no NVMe devices installed, and the SATA section shows every drive but this one. Being that it's not showing up, I can't tell if TRIM is enabled or not.
Benchmark. Comparing it to the 850 Evo it does feel a bit snappier, but nothing like going from a HDD to an SSD.
Relevant specs: i7-4790K, Gigabyte Z97X-UD5H-BK (F8 BIOS), Gigabyte G1 980 Ti
