Indeed, if price difference is small, no reason to go with older standard product :)]]> Fri, 08 Jan 2021 23:32:28 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=17742&PID=82930&title=x470-taichi-seagate-firecuda-520#82930 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=17742&PID=82929&title=x470-taichi-seagate-firecuda-520#82929 Author: Bob Kelso

Storage QVLs are stupid and pointless. Buy whatever drive you want, all of them will run at max speed within what motherboard pci-e arrangement is.
Keep in mind your motherboard only supports pci-e gen 3, so firecuda will not run at its full potential. It will be limited to pci-e 3.0 speeds

P.S. Unless motherboard manufacturers list ALL the SSD storage devices and assure the compatibility, the QVLs are pointless :)]]> Fri, 08 Jan 2021 15:44:47 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=17742&PID=82912&title=x470-taichi-seagate-firecuda-520#82912 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=17742&PID=82901&title=x470-taichi-seagate-firecuda-520#82901 Author: Bob Kelso

I see the seagate firecuda 520 is on storage QVL, but will it run at it's maximum speeds or should I get another m2 drive?]]> Fri, 08 Jan 2021 10:12:04 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=17742&PID=82901&title=x470-taichi-seagate-firecuda-520#82901
