All SSD aggregate on FAS2720

Is it possible to create an aggregate with all SSD disks on an FAS2720?

We have a FAS2720 with 12x4TB NL-SAS internal disks. And we would like to add an external shelf with 12x3.84 SSD to create an all SSD aggregate. We would like to know if this is possible.

If we do a simulation in Fusion we can create it without problems. But we had a doubt when we saw this information in the document "FAS2700-Tech-FAQ-v1.1.1" where it literally says this:

"Are all-SSD configurations supported with the FAS2720?
Answer: No. All-SSD configurations are not supported on the FAS2720. Only hybrid configurations leveraging SSDs for Flash Pool are supported."

Thank you!

It's possible, but why?

You can check all shelf/disk compatibility at hwu.netapp.com.
