It's buried so deep within my hardware, as to make examination not worth the trouble.
I appreciate responses ...

OK, inconvenience. No link to toolbox. Not a problem. https://www.kingston.com/en/ssd/a400-solid-state-drive

There is no listing saying A400 is supported, but it won't
take long to install and test and get the wear infos and
so on.
