I'm just tinkering around with my build at the moment, so excuse my ignorance as I can't find much in the documentation about this.
I got a PCIE dual m2 card in today and I wanted to make sure the motherboard/system could see it and detect and M2 since the motherboard doesn't officially support it based on the lack of information in the supermicro manuals. I have 2x Micron 7300 PRO 480GB's in the mail but they haven't arrived yet. So I grabbed a spare 512gb 970 Pro I had in the inventory and hooked it all up.
BOOM, it works! Small victories.
My question is...
Can turn a single m2 into L2ARC, or if that require two m2 in order to even create it? I don't currently even have the option to hit create if I add it to a cache vdev.
