To be clear, my issue is with the new M.2 PCIe SSD "drive" itself
which I ordered from amazon. It arrives today and I'm not certain it
will work. I've not been able to confirm it does or doesn't, and
Dell support has been no help. (I've never used SSD before, let alone
PCIe SSD) It's the Samsung PM961 1TB card, by the way, if anyone
knows about this stuff.
I haven't used one either, but my friends do (one using Ubuntu, the
other using Windows, neither with any special computing skills). My
understanding is that they're supposed to be a drop-in hard drive
replacement. Your OS should work with them in the same way.
If they need any special parameters I'm unaware of them, and I would
hope that if you do a fresh install onto one of them that the installer
would do what it needs to do.
If you install a SSD by itself, you're free to experiment on it. Your
other, unplugged, drive won't be disturbed by such testing.
