M.2 Sockets
M.2 sockets are designed for devices such as memory cards, wireless adapters, etc. These
devices must conform to the PCIe M.2 specifications (formerly known as NGFF). There are
three M.2 sockets (M-Key), supporting the 2280 form factor, located on the motherboard.
Refer to the table below for more information.

RAID 0 and 1 via PCIe interface can be supported only with Intel NVMe PCIe
SSD devices installed in both CPU-attached (PCI-E M.2-M3) and PCH-attached (PCI-E
M.2-M1, PCI-E M.2-M2) sockets.
