      it’s NVME in the sense that it’s non volatile flash, probably even higher quality than most existing NVME ssds out there today.

      The thing is that it literally just the flash. On a card with an m.2 pin out, that fits into an m.2 slot, it doesn’t have a storage controller or any standardized method of communication, that already exists. It’s literally a proprietary non standard standard form factor SSD.

      The controller is integrated onto the silicon chip die itself, there is no storage controller on the storage itself.
