Compare NVMe and SATA SSDs with their respective ports.
Compare NVMe and SATA SSDs with their respective ports.
You have a standalone Plex Media/NAS setup. The documentation lists the components and their connections. You're considering adding more storage by swapping your current M.2 SSD for an NVMe drive, wondering if that would free up all six SATA ports. The board’s specs mention that using an M.2 device blocks one SATA port, but it doesn’t explicitly say you can use all ports with an NVMe instead. You should verify the board’s compatibility with NVMe and ensure the new drive fits the available slots.
