[-- Attachment #1 --] 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 X11SPM-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.

We are planning whether to buy M2 NVME disks or just SATA SSD disks (probably Samsung PM* ones). How is you experience with them?. Do you recommend one over the another?. Is perhaps better support from some of them from a specificic version to newer?. Or do they perhaps work better with some specific disk controller?.
