  *1. The PCIe x1_3, PCIe x1_4 slots share bandwidth with PCIe x16_2. The PCIe x16_2 slot runs at x2 mode as default. Please check BIOS for more configuration.
  *2. When a device in SATA mode is installed on the M.2_1 socket, SATA_2 port cannot be used.
  *3. When a device is installed on the M.2_2 socket, SATA_5/6 port cannot be used.
  *4. Supports CPU RAID with Intel® PCIe NVME SSDs. RAID 0 and 1 are supported via a Hyper M.2 X16 series card or on RAID sets created between the onboard M.2 socket and a Hyper M.2 X16 series card.
