Will Kingston KC3000 2.048 TB M.2-2280 PCIe 4.0 X4 NVME Solid State Drive work on Ubuntu?
Following this thread I got some info about where I can search for related records. Now, this link seems to be for the above NVME drive. But, I am not sure why it says "SKC3000D2048G" instead of "KC3000D2048G". So, I basically need to confirm if this is the right link to confirm my desired NVME drive is supported.
