There's no m.2 slots or U.2 ports on the mainboard itself.  The S150 =
supports non-RAID mode, but that still leaves supporting a =
software-based PERC card as a PCIe switch for the 8 or 10 NVME bays =
behind it.

This doesn=E2=80=99t seem to be the case for Miroslav=E2=80=99s system.  =
There=E2=80=99s no special handling of the PCIe bridge/switch in linux =
where it does work, and there=E2=80=99s growing evidence that this is a =
case of FreeBSD not handling hotplug ports correctly.
