BTW - should I use the Supermicro BIOS to make the mirrored RAID or use Proxmox?

OK - next plan. I have a 2.5" SSD in my NUC - I will use that as my Proxmox disk...should be just fine. (until I eventually one day get a 981a :-))

I know - it is still not a 981a...but I have a Transcend MTS830S 250GB M2.... Guess what....that still does not show up. What can it be in the BIOS that I am missing...?

Very strange - I did that change in the settings. The drive does not show up. I tried to add the drive to my main pc and it showed up. So the drive is working... ...will try further...

Thanks again. The 2x8 Kingston ValueRAM SO DDR4-2400 SC from the NUC....I could add them as a starting point to have 32 GB ram. I guess all ram Will then be 2400 but fine.

Thanks. will the Evo not be good enough for the Proxmox? I have a spare SSD i can add for the VMs....i actually had planned to add both Proxmox and VMs on the same M2 drive...but that is not ideal? Seems a bit waste to add a little Proxmox to the M2 alone. I have 2x8 Kingston ValueRAM SO...
