Issue with M.2 slot on motherboard
Issue with M.2 slot on motherboard
The compatibility section explains that the M.2 slot uses bandwidth from SATA 6.0 ports, and when the slot is filled, two of those ports become unavailable. This could affect performance if you rely on those ports for data transfer. Using more than two ports might cause conflicts or instability. Regarding the case, it mentions a USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type C port in the base model but notes that the ROG STRIX B450-F doesn’t support it, so you’d need an adapter to make it work.
Indicates that inserting the M.2 drive into slot #1 will turn off two SATA ports. This means drives connected via those two SATA ports won't function with the M.2 device; you likely need to replace your motherboard for this setting.
