Hello,

I have a NetGate APU2 running pfSense 2.3.  It came pre-installed and I've 
upgraded it over the past two years.
It also came a 16GB mSata card and an 8GB SD card, both of which I think are 
unused.

I write for advice on how best to start using these unused resources.

The questions:

- Where is pfSense installed if not on either of ada0 or da0?

- Does it make sense to start using ada0 and install pfSense there?

- Do you have other recommendations?

- Oh, look at that in dmesg: If you agree with the license, set 
legal.intel_ipw.license_ack=1 in /boot/loader.conf
  Things seem to be working fine without that.  What am I missing out on?

# df -h

But the system does have two drives:

# sysctl kern.disks
kern.disks: ada0 da0
