I've been watching Sabrent grown on Amazon from the sidelines, very impressive how far they've come. Literally every other review I watched on YouTube in the last week had Sabrent SSD's.

I'm a bit confused still about the situation with these new motherboard slots for SSDs.... still using the SATA for SSD Windows C drive.

I'm using an "x570 Asus Hero VIIII" and have all SATA ports in use (1 x 2.5" SSD, 5 x 3.5" HDs in bays, 1 x 3.5" hotswap HD bay)

If I replace the SATA based SSD drive with an M2 drive like this... will the SATA port now be disabled?

If I put two of these M2 drives on motherboard, does that disable more SATA ports??

EDIT FOUND INFO:
"Between the PCIe slots and hidden below the heatsink and shroud are two M.2 slots. Both slots are able to run SATA or PCIe based m.2 modules. The primary, (top) slot will hold up to an 80mm drive, while the bottom slot supports up to 110mm. As is the norm on X570 due to the PCIe lane count, no SATA ports will be affected regardless of what type of M.2 module is used."

I don't know what difference is between "SATA or PCIe based m.2" though.

Im running an Asus prime x570pro and my manual does not say anything about a limit on sata ports when using m.2, im running 2 Corsair mp600 pci-e 4.0 x4(2tb/1tb) and 2 Sandisk ultra ssd`s and have no issues....i even get full x16 on my gpu, if there are any limits your manual will state it, m.2 sata will give same speed as sata sata

Been using a standard rocket 2TB for my game drive in my PC (replaced a 1TB 600p) and it's very impresive. It blows my 960EVO away in benchmarks. I really want to get two 2TB for RAID0 on my laptop.

m.2 is the drives "format", not a connection
the sata drives are just that. ssds with sata interface.
thus they will not perform better than if the identical drive with sata connector is hooked up to sata 3g.
the pcie based m.2 drives use the pcie lanes (cpu/chipset) directly, and circumvent the sata limits (of about 5-600MB/s).

so even that my 3rd port isnt full speed (x4) i still bought a pcie drive , and perf is about double vs the sata based ssd i still have.
