Not sure if it matters but I have Libreboot installed. It’s the slot located next to the drive slot.

Also any other upgrade recommendations while I’m at it? I have maxed out the RAM and have an SSD. I am wondering if I should upgrade the WiFi card. I don’t know if there are any limitations there.

I was looking at that myself. Some ThinkPad forum posts seem to suggest it only helps if you don’t have an SSD.

If it actually functions as a secondary drive that’s incredibly fast that would be a neat novelty.

I’ve seen something similar. What I gotten from that is the fact above only applies when you’re using it as an accelerator (as intended).

Yes, it would function as a drive, at least under Linux.

Once again, I haven’t actually used this thing…
