What I don't want is another one of those m.2 NVME drives that I have to take the cooler off to access (although it's now loose so let's see if the CPU melts down and I don't have to worry about drives).
If I got one of these: https://www.scan.co.uk/products/192tb-samsung-pm9a3-25-enterprise-ssd-25-ssd-pcie-40x4-u2-6800mb-s-read-4000mb-s-write-1000k-180k-io it looks like it'll just go in one of the normal SSD drive bays, right? Does it use a different connector or will the normal sata ones work? Hard drives feel like bottom bracket standards nowadays...

Note: if you're looking to use a U.2 drive, and your motherboard doesn't have a U.2 connector, then you'll need to get a M.2 to U.2 adapter cable, as well as get power to it (via a standard SATA power connector) and physically mount the drive inside your case (it'll fit in most SATA drive bays).
