I'm new to github as well as Synology but I've managed to get the 970 nvme ssds on the internal slots working fine as a volume, I have a E10m20-t1 card installed and mainly just want to use it as a 10g nic till I get more nvme drives to use for caching later, but every time I run the script via PuTTY it says no m.2 PCIe cards found, ive tried the 3.1.60-RC and the regular 3.4.86
any help is appreciated very much!

For some strange reason Synology never enabled the M.2 slots in the E10M20-T1, M2D20, M2D18 or M2D17 for the DS1821+, DS1621+ and the FS2500.

So I wrote https://github.com/007revad/Synology_enable_M2_card to add the missing support.

If you want to use 3 or 4 NVMe drives as 1 storage pool you can use RAID F1 if you enable RAID F1 with https://github.com/007revad/Synology_SHR_switch
