PCIe SSD In Slot Card Properties
The PCIe SSD in slot card is similar to a physical disk in Storage Management. This PCIe SSD card is directly attached to the
PCIe SSD subsystem, unlike a PCIe extender card which is attached to an enclosure or backplane. You can view information
about the PCIe SSDs and run PCIe SSD tasks on the PCIe SSD in slot card Properties page. To view the complete PCIe SSD in
slot card properties, click Full View on the top of the page. For more information, see PCIe SSD in Slot Card Tasks
