Hello, I have an Asus ROG Crosshair VIII Dark Hero Wifi and a Hyper M.2 x16 v2 for increasing NVMe capacity. Only one stick appears on the expansion card, which is placed in the PCIE X16_3 slot. The PCIE x16_1 is occupied by my 4080.

You are limited by your the number of PCIE lanes you have. You are either going to have to sacrifice a GPU performance (by enabling bifurbication in bios) or remove that card, no way around it.

You’d divide the process by adjusting the X16_1 speed settings—either to x8 or x4—to ensure both drives appear. Currently, only one is showing up.

BIOS should let you set your PCIe slots to x16 or disable them, or choose x8 and x8. You might need to navigate through the settings in the BIOS menu.

It seems the PCIE Raid feature is only offered for the X16_1 and X16_2 slots, not the X16_3. This appears to be an unsuccessful attempt.
