How many sata ports are there in the motherboard and how many does he need ?

[Suvajit Majumder]

My friend wants to buy a new pc so I suggested him the following configuration. But my main question is how many SATA ports do this motherboard support? He does not need a fancy keyboard mouse or speakers just a basic thing will do. How many SATA  do this configuration actually need? Is this motherboard enough if not please advise for a better motherboard with more SATA ports.

SMPS =  CORSAIR AX 1500 WATTS 80+ TITANIUM

It has 6 sata ports, but that's besides the point. The motherboard and the cpu aren't compatible with each other.

I am an amateur so hardly have no idea so asked in the forum. So if I change the motherboard to Asus Rog Maximus XI Extreme will this configuration work smoothly?
