This option is missing in my BIOS, any ideas why?

Hello Cyracus, Indeed, it could be running in sata mode. As i have seen in some videos, this problem could be solved (note: the video was using a Z97 board) by going into Advanced\Onboard Devices Configuration and changing option "PCI Express slot bandwidth" from "Auto Mode" to "M.2". I tried doing so but this option is missing in my bios, as i stated before i already updated my bios so i dont know why this is missing. Maybe i should contact Asus support. Cheers

Hello everyone, I bought the WD_BLACK SN750 NVMe SSD (on sale) without upgrading my motherboard (i have an h97i-plus). After upgrading my bios and a fresh windows install i tested the storage device with CrystalDiskMark and i get around 1/3 the speed compared to some benchmarks i've looked at. My question is, am i getting bottlenecked by the motherboard or could the nvme be faulty?? The mobo's manual states "1 x M.2 Socket 3 with M Key, type 2260/2280 storage devices support" Thanks for your help!

Awesome idea for limited spaces i want to be lucky enough to grab one. thanks!
