The worst issue is, unless I am wrong you won’t have hot swap. At least when I tried the code for the “warm swap” ritual was not in place. You can’t just unplug like you would a SAS disk. You need to put the device in quiescent mode before. Also, beware the NVMes and their TRIM implementation. Check firmware versions and test in advance. I had a nasty surprise with Intel NVMEs some time ago. Borja.
