----=_RainLoop_810_811315221.1681454582 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hello, I own a (+3 years old) Supermicro server with 4 SAS HDD and an NVMe SSD (= Samsung PM981 M.2 512 Go PCI Express 3.0 NVMe). My motherboard is a X11SP= M-F. I have absolutely no problem with the NVMe SSD. As I have only one of them, I've choose not to use it as boot. I'm using = part of it as a log device for the SAS RAIDZ pool and the rest of it as a= standalone pool for special use cases. Works really great.
