On various motherboards when you use one kind of special drive interface you lose another port. Which could be a hard either/or usage of only one port, or perhaps just some weird failure mode. Mine does an either/or between you can use Ultra M.2 socket or one of the SATA ports. Or, there's speed reductions on one interface when one of the others is used. Mine runs the Ultra M.2 socket slower if it's being used in PCIe mode, but not SATA3 mode, when PCIE slot 2 is being used. It's maddening to buy a board with multiple connectors to be told you can only use some of them at a time. Imagine buying a board with three PCIE slots only to be told you can't plug in three cards, they're just there so you can position one card in the most convenient place. -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1160.53.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Jan 14 13:59:45 UTC 2022 x86_64 Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
