Dear Vantharas,

Thank you for posting your query to the ASRock forum.

Kindly be noted that M.2_1 slot is reserved for the future CPU.

To use the M.2, please install the M.2 on M.2_3/M.2_2 by referring to the page. 7 in the following link:

With thanks,

The manual doesn't make that clear. Its been written to seem like only PCI-E Gen 4 is supported in a future CPU release not that the slot *WILL NOT WORK* unless you have said future CPU. That being said Thanks for the quick response I appreciate it!!!

I also forgot to add, I put the drives into the other slot next to the CPU, and both drives work there. It seems that I was given a board that has a bad M2 slot.

Hi guys, can anyone tell me if this slot supports NVME drives? It says it does in the manual and I've put both a Western Digital Black and Intel 660P NVME drives in this slot neither one have been detected.

Any thoughts, Ideas or Bios settings that need to happen?
