The other way round is more likely (OEM lock) in servers

One thing I have been unable to gather info online is whether these OEM (Micron / Samsung / Kioxia) EDSFF drives will work out of the box in the OEM’s ( Dell / HPE / Supermicro ) server? Under Windows Server OS? Like does the drives fit in physically in the box? After fitting in, does it need special drivers to work properly or even the drive interface is standardized out of the box, like USB mouse / keyboard.

An article on this aspect would be helpful.
