Description

After adding an SSD drive, it may be necessary to adjust the m2dev setting to either 1 or 0. It would be beneficial to include this procedure in the existing M.2 SATA Installation documentation page.

I had a customer whose SG-3100 couldn't boot from SSD until we changed m2dev to 1.

Prior to the change, the system failed to boot with the following logs:

Error: SCSI Controller(s) 1B4B:9215 1B4B:9235 not found
