lsusb
lsblk

The output be like:

• Partitioning the NVMe SSD by using `fdisk` command:

Please NOTE: Backup your important data before you do next step!!!! This step will clean up all of your data on the disk!!!

 sudo fdisk /dev/sda 

Create new partition by following figure:

Do remember save the partition table by using `w` command.

• Formating the Partition by using `mkfs` command:

sudo mkfs -t ext4 /dev/sda1 

or

sudo mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda1

and then make a directory as the disk mounting point, and mount the partition to mounting point：

mkdir mydata 

sudo mount -t ext4 /dev/sda1  /home/pi/mydata -v 

you can change the mounting point as your own.

• Check the status of the mounting disk

• Grant privileges to your account and try to create a test file in it:
