Hello all,

>From bsdnow I've read about a M.2 expansion board that I'm looking for.
( https://www.bsdnow.tv/569?utm_source=bsdweekly )

The board is https://geekworm.com/products/x862 that it is compatible with
M.2 NGFF SATA SSDs only, not compatible with NVMe M.2 SSDs, so disk should
be choosed carefully.

Currently using a USB3 external SSD disk, should I expect a great
performance improvement?

If anyone have experience with other boards please let me know.

Thanks,

--
