I’m looking to grab a Dell R640 and with the price of M.2 storage being so low I’m wondering if I can buy a m.2 to 2.5 u.2 conversion adapter to make use of some consumer grade NVMEs in my server. Here would work is an example of one but with mixed reviews.

Wondering what is everyone doing for hot-swapable NVME storage?

Thanks for the reply. How did idrac or similar see them? If you have the appropriate backplate is there any need for extra power? Were you able to get full speed with these? Does it become problematic if you hotswap these drives (while configured in raid)?
