Very interesting, but reading the customer reviews, this is a 4X PCIe unit, not 16X. Apparently this means you can only get about half the speed out of fast M.2 drives. (I must confess I don't understand PCI specs that well.) If my conclusions are correct, a M.2 drive on this board will still be about 3 times faster than a SATA SSD, but you won't get the blistering 6X speeds of units like the Samsung 970 M.2 series. Pity!

Anyone who understands PCIe specs better, please feel free to chip in. Smile | :)

Straw Poll

Were you affected by the geomagnetic storms this past weekend?
Communication disruptions, electrified pipes, random unexplained blue-screens in Windows - the list of effects is terrifying.
