   [URL=][/URL]I've got a question regarding the usage of an M.2 SSD on this board. 
The official list of supported M.2 SSDs is quite small and contents not many drives (http://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/Z97%20Extreme43.1/?cat=Storage).
I need and use alle 8 SATA-Connectors, so I cannot install a M.2 SSD with an SATA Interface without deactivating some of them, right? Or is it still possible to use a SATA-M.2 drive?
If it is not possible, can I use PCIe 3.0x4 drives (for sure without using their whole speed)?
Thanks
