Installation Notices for the M.2, and SATA Connectors:
Due to the limited number of lanes provided by the Chipset, the availability of the SATA connectors may be
affected by the type of device installed in the M2S_32G connector. The M.2 connector shares bandwidth with
the PCIEX4_2 connector. Refer to the following table for details:
