NVMe device names follow this pattern: nvme n , where: is an integer that is assigned by Linux during the boot process. The first NVMe device that is detected is assigned 0

I still don't understand the point of namespaces. I guess it's less overhead to pass through a namespace to a VM rather than having a virtualised disk image or bind mount.

So the 3rd dragon should just be /dev/nvme%d
