• PCIEX16_2 slot share bandwidth with M.2_2, which runs at PCIe 4.0/3.0 x8 by
default. When M.2_2 is enabled, PCIEX16_2 will run PCIe 4.0/3.0 x4 mode.
• M.2_3 shares bandwidth with SATA6G_5~6. If M.2_3 is populated by an NVMe
device, SATA6G_5~6 will be suspended. If M.2_3 is operating in SATA mode, then
M.2_3 and SATA6G_5~6 will all be able to support SATA devices. Please adjust this
item in the BIOS settings.
