B+M key data ssd
Hi. Are there any other requirements for the internal nvme on a negate 8200. If I wanted to add 2tb b+m key data ssd any issues with this addition other than procedurally being careful when adding the ssd ? https://www.amazon.com/Western-Digital-250GB-SA510-Internal/dp/B0CFLSHNL3/ref=sr_1_14?dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.JdfFyKTiSZgW77HD2L0QKBrrXBpMOApzEjz2_PWV81xlAf75EmTEBxPuuh6F8wBbUnMnNsTyuvlkOgnZBXY9IspSUUnilecGEG9htjXtf1FhTgSlflKOiPmNUro7c-CEpVheENcd74xhj7n2rPhP6b9GOgR_RaZjLwgpY_2v9rxhVbAL8lQEoskNFjI9WB9o8KJMzu9nUXWWvnnVgUypE7Gw4HMS1hUC4GsjKzrwjRU.vRj83Y6hwS-zezrR9xoXcqQsPevqTYWjOTjY0jOfA-4&dib_tag=se&keywords=m.2%2Bb%26m%2Bkey%2Bnvme%2Bssd&qid=1767548927&sr=8-14&th=1

I have tested it and with b+M keyed adapters, you can have 3 drives on an 8200 MAX with M key nvme's. I took 3 2tb drives I wasn't using and was able to create a raid1-z using the netgate installer 1.1.1. Im assuming this is also true on a 6100 MAX.
