Not RAID I presume?

I never have /boot on RAID, but that's just me I suppose.

Agree.

Think about this:
To start with, RAID1 is marginally slower than ordinary filesystems on partitions.
Does a server use swap to hibernate?
Does a server /want/ to use swap for anything?
Does anyone want swap on any type of SSD?
If I was to put swap on NVME, I would not use a RAID, just like on my old RAID
systems on HDDs. If I had 32G or more RAM, I'd just let the kernel swap to file
instead of devoting discrete partition space to swap.
