Anyone getting temperature graphs from NVMe devices? I ask because the SMART agent is giving me all zeroes/nulls - smartctl however seems to be giving actual data.

@EuroBSDCon @bhyvecon we had a NYC*BUG member we haven't seen since 2015 just walk right in! It was like they never left. Hasn't been local because of $work, but was delighted to see everyone.
