Setting up a home server (NUC i5) and it can only take a 2.5" SATA drive
and a NVMe PCIe SSD - but I would really like a mirrored ZFS boot.
Is it possible (and safe?) to use a 512GB SATA SSD and a 512GB NVMe PCi
SSD in a zfs boot mirror?

Thanks, thought that would be the case.

Didn't know that, will check.
