Yes, that has been at the back of my mind also. At the moment, I can't
test the theory: all the SATA connectors are occupied. The motherboard
only allows 4 onboard: I have an extra SATA card installed - but I
don't trust it as far as I could throw it, and I don't really want to
add more weirdness into the mix.

The USB3 is direct to the motherboard connector: I've been using an
identical Samsung 870 EVO via the same connector without problems (so
far anyway).

I've dug out an older SanDisk 1T SSD, and I'm just dd'ing the disk
which keeps borking to it - assuming it completes OK, I'll try using
the SanDisk and see what happens.
