My Supermicro 2U X8DTN+F server currently boots from a very old 2.5" laptop spinning rust drive inside of a cheap, self-powered USB drive enclosure. While it gets the job done, I worry this hard drive could crap out at any moment. Since all my server drive bays are occupied with storage drives, I would need an alternate way to boot FreeNAS and came across this M.2 SSD PCIe Adapter on Amazon. With that adapter and perhaps this M.2 SSD drive - will these two components work well to boot FreeNAS on my older Supermicro server?
