Readynas 526 with frigate and nvidia NVENC

Thanks for the manual provided here.

https://community.netgear.com/t5/New-ReadyNAS-Users-General/Install-Debian-11-on-ReadyNas-526x/td-p/2305637

I finally transformed my 526X into OMV 7 (Debian 12). I have Docker running with 9 containers. I installed Frigate with 5 cameras and noticed that it struggles with FFmpeg conversion from the cameras (for AI detection, I’m going to use Google Coral USB).

To support FFmpeg, I decided to install a low-power NVIDIA card (I bought a cheap NVIDIA P652).However, I’m wondering whether the PCIe slot in the 526X is x4 or x8. Will it be recognized by the BIOS? Are there any restrictions?
