NetMaster

ok. need to do another test. maybe is some settings on the bios or another config error. what do you have to says about the comment below I've done a bit more research and think this may have to do with not having enough PCIe Lanes. I'm using a Ryzen 7 3700x = 24 PCIe Lanes Chipset - 4 lanes 1 x nvme SSD - 4 lanes GPU (2070 super) - 16 lanes = not enough lanes for the additional nvme SSD? So maybe I need a 2.5 SSD instead i don't know about lanes assigned. or how are handled by the motherboard.

that is the reason i am asking for help. 8 sata ports are working fine without m2 slots in use. test lab was 1 slot m2 nvme with 3 sata ports and 1 VGA, was running perfect with no issues. i read similar complaints in asus forums about this. what bios version are you running ? running bios 2607 for me. i never made a recommendations about anything. just posted what i've experienced in my tests. i read also about max pci-e lane are not enough and shared bandwidth is enabled if you try to run all slots at max speed. any readings recommendations with those specs and architecture specifications ?

Hi. i have the same specs. migrate mobo and cpu. but has problems at the start . Whats is your disk assignment on the Sata ports ? Initially I started sata 1 Parity1 4tb sata 2 parity2 4tb sata 3 Disk 1 4tb sata 4 Disk 2 4tb sata 5 disk 3 4tb sata 6 disk 4 4tb sata 7 SSD Cache 256gb sata 8 SSD unassigned vm storage 128gb m2. slot 1 nvme 250gb unassigned, for pass to VM 1 vga GTX 1060 for pass Win 10 VM 1 vga Radeon 580 for pass OS X VM 1 Sound blaster ZXR for pass win 10VM With that configuration I have problems with the array and errors on Sata 1 and Sata 6, both disk was disabled after severals read errors. I removed the M2 Slot 1 and everything start working properly, I rebuild data from disk 4 and rebuild parity 1 drive. I think asus disable 2 Sata ports if you are using a nvme drive but is not mentioned on the manual. I tested 3 weeks ago a x470 mainboard and in the documentation its special section that mentions the Sata ports disabled with the use of the m2 slots. now my only problem remains in the data temp.
