M.2 SSDs can be using different kind of interface and/or communication protocol depending on the model of the drive.

  • If a M.2 SSD has a SATA interface, the software should support it without problems, the drive will be visible as a SATA/SSD drive in the user interface and in the erasure report.
  • If a M.2 SSD has a PCIe interface, the software may support it: PCIe drives have an internal communication protocol that is either a SATA protocol or an NVMe protocol.
    • If the M.2 SSD with PCIe interface has a SATA protocol, the sofware should be able to detect it (as SATA/SSD) and erase it providing at least clear-level erasure result.
    • If the M.2 SSD with PCIe interface has a NVMe protocol, the software does not support them at the moment.
