Check your system for two PCIe Gen4 SSDs and three SATA SSDs. The motherboard should accept the SATA drives, but you'll need to place them in the correct SATA slots.

They should function properly. Just plug it into ports 1, 2, and 3 unless the instructions say otherwise. No worries if that’s incorrect—this isn’t my first time using an ASUS board.

That official guide is quite poor quality. It's hard to take the 'RTFM' attitude seriously. @ImPCNoob It should function properly; the connection type doesn't impact performance, though it might affect device ordering or identification. Rarely do boards have both 3Gbps and 6Gbps ports. The main change will be in how your devices are arranged. Typically, SATA connectors are listed from top to bottom, with numbers often shown on the board near them. From the site images, they mention labels like 'SATA6G_12', 'SATA6G_34', and 'SATA6G_56'.
