Hi. I am trying to figure out how to get high-speed storage in my R640 server. I just want to use consumer-grade NVME disks, so I can write data at ≥ 1GByte/sec per disk. Do you have any suggestions on what hardware to choose?

If you have a PCI-Express slot available, you could also buy a Nvme to PCIE adapter. Many aren't expensive and work quite well (I use one to have a Nvme drive in an old computer). However depending on the BIOS/UEFI booting from an Nvme doesn't work.
