Is it possible to overprovision the Sabrent Rockent NVMe 4.0 1TB M.2 drive? I don't see anything about it in the Sabrent Rocket Control Panel and I've emailed the company but haven't received a response. The internet doesn't have much info I can find either. If it is possible how would you go about doing it? Thanks

Samsung Magician allows me to over provision my 970 EVO so I assumed it was possible on other M.2 drives as well. Thanks for the reply.
Right, but its not really needed.

Just leave some free space.
the OP just walls that off so you can't fill it up. ALL the user and OS sees is the resultant space (actual - OP amount).

Over provisioning is not needed with modern SSDs, they already have mechanism in place to do same job.
