Hey everyone, just checking if the VIII hero (Ryzen) works at full speed with both M.2 slots enabled. Some motherboards might not support it, though. I own two Samsung 970 EVO cards. Any thoughts?

Both M.2 ports are compatible with PCIe 4.0, which means it should function properly. Please verify if you're correct.

It works perfectly. I'm using two PCIe NVMe drives and confirming everything operates smoothly.

Hey! I'm not sure about the sticks you're referring to. Could you clarify which ones you mean?

Intel 760P 1TB for your boot drive and a 660P 2TB for storage. Considering Corsair 2TB PCIe 4.0 drives and transferring them to a secondary system sounds like a plan.

I chose a 2x970 Pro Evo with a 250GB drive for my boot, and another 1TB for games. I thought about adding more, but that would mean too many games installed and I’d want to play them all. So I made a deliberate decision. If I need extra space later, I can upgrade to a faster SSD.
