Patrick, if you mean swapping the drive with an operational OS installed i think it is dependent on which OS is installed. Some OS installations make the hardware of the install part of the security of the OS. most notably Windows will make hash keys based on what hardware is on the system. will BSD make similar hashes ? i do not know. if it is open source probably not. but i'm thinking BSD would still make references to specific hardware to allow for kernel configurations. you're second thought about why the installer did not recognize the msata drive has me puzzled also. i can not remember if the linux mint installer also had problems. it was good to hear that your hardware is operational and working well.
