Note: There is a known issue with this check that might result in the following error.
If you see the "Unsupported NVMe Drive.." message, it is likely that the code is incorrectly looking
for a "G3" NVMe Drive type. To confirm this is not a real error do the following:
i) Exit essutils and log in as the root user.
ii) Run the command nvme --list.
Inspect the output and ensure that none of the drive models have "G3" in them.
For example:
3.84TB NVMe G3 Tier-1 Flash

with the code 20 flow.
