Hi,
I'm in the process of building a new system for a FreeNAS installation. The board is a X10SDV-7TP4F which has a m.2 PCIe 3.0 x4 slot. My plan is to add a SSD into there which will host a few VMs, and my choice was the Samsung 960 EVO NVMe.
As of now I'm still in the process of setting the system up, but it appears that something is off with the disk or my configuration. The drive is nowhere listed in the BIOS, not as boot device or anywhere else. The FreeNAS installer doesn't list the drive as a possible installation location either. It's as if the drive wouldn't be there.
Dealing with NVMe is a bit new to me. Is there anything special I need to do in order to let the drive show up? Or will this only be the case once the OS is installed with all its drivers?
I've already updated the mainboard BIOS to the newest revision, but that didn't change a thing.
I'd appreciate your help on this.
