I am new to NVMe drives. I bought 6x Samsung MZ-1LW9600 drives and the plan is to test them as cache drives for Storage Spaces Direct.
Because these are the 1st NVMe drives I have ever used I dont know what I need to connect them to my Supermicro X9DRi-ln4f+ MB.
The first thing I need to do is test them with S2D to see if they work. It seems I need a PCIe adapter. I need something
2U height
takes 1 or 2 NVMe drives
4x - 16x PCIe
Prefer somethings sourced from Amazon for quick turn around.
I have been reading and understand there are different NVMe types and connectors so I need recommendations for compatibility and durability. If the drives work with S2D then they will be used in production.
Thanks,
Todd
