Can I use cryptsetup commands on a PCIe NVM ssd drive?
 

Hi everybody

I've been using mechanical hard drives for years and learn many commands to do on them. I know the cryptsetup commands support HDD and SATA SSD drives, but what about PCIe NVM drives?

Can the command below work on PCIe NVM drives?

Or do I need to add switches to the command above for this type of drive.

I appreciate any replies. Thanks

As a general rule the tools couldn't care less about the block device they are dealing with. If your kernel supports the device - i.e. you can see the device and its partitions, then you should be good to go. Try it and see.
