I just purchased a PCI adapter to add an NVME drive to an old server. I thought it wasn't supported as lsblk doesn't show it, but I can see the drive with lspci...
How can I add this drive to proxmox so it can keep VMs on it? Only thing I can find online is how to do passthrough with it but I am not interested in doing that at the moment...
