Hi
On a MSI Z97 Gaming 5 motherboard, I am currently using all six SATA III ports.
I wish to install a M.2 NVMe SSD, and understand that this disables two of my six ports.
I need access to all six drives, but would like to benefit from the M.2 NVMe for other tasks... is there a way I can achieve this?
I note that there appears to be multiple PCIe / SATA cards (e.g. https://www.amazon.com/s?k=pci+sata), but I really have no idea.
I do have a PCIe and a PCI x16 lane available.
Any suggestions are much appreciated!
Thanks!
