Okay, I am swapping my DRAM-less M.2 drive, which I probably paid too little for so I deserve, from being a Linux boot volume, to being storage for my Mac.
The procedure will go as follows:
- export the ZFS storage in the Mac so it won't try to auto mount it later
- power off the Mac
- swap the SN750 from the Mac enclosure into the PC where my Windows drive currently lives (motherboard M.2 slot)
- boot Linux again from the x16 slotted DRAM-less Crucial drive
- go about my desktop business and read some shit while I use
zfs sendto back up the SN750 to my spinny things - reboot to my last used Arch live media with ZFS support
clonezillathe Crucial drive to the SN750- zap the Crucial drive so it can't boot
- boot back into the now SN750'd Linux

- remove the Crucial drive from the PCIe slot adapter and stuff the Samsung 980 Pro Windows drive back in its place

- restore the Mac with its new cheapass drive
