install disk m2 in CCR2116

Hi,
Sorry I’m totally new on mikrotik platform. I did not find any manual or any video on how to install a disk on the CCR2116-12G-4S+ nor a compatibility list of nvme disk … Did I miss something ?
Also I guess the formatting will be done by booting the router and in the winbox interface when the disk is detected?
Thanks in advance

Thin one is working: Samsung 970 EVO Plus MZ-V7S250BW - SSD - encrypted - 250 GB - internal - M.2 2280 - PCIe 3.0 x4 (NVMe) - buffer: 512 MB - 256-bit AES - TCG Opal Encryption

CCR2116-12G-4S+ - User manuals - MikroTik Documentation
Recommended are NVMe M.2 2280mm M key SSD disks with no capacity limitations.

Yeah I notice all of that but I thought it was speaking about disk already installed by mikrotik. Not by the User.
That’s why I thought there would be a compliant list, like there always is for even NAS.

But also there no mounting instruction … I’m not speaking software wise but schematics about this specific router on how to dismount safely, is there maybe a mechanism to disengage, those kind of things… Normally open a case of a router would void the warranty, that’s why I ask. So is there anywhere a tutorial video to not screw it up? Or is it like… Self made done?

But thank you for the reminder of the links of course.
