Im building a new PC in a few weeks and plan on getting the Asus Strix Z270E mobo which has 2 m.2 slots. I plan on getting the intel 600p 512GB. Does it matter if I use the top slot or bottom slot? Thanks for the help.

It shouldn't matter, they should have the same speeds/bandwidth. Atleast with Asus, I've checked before

just got done looking through, If you use the bottom one it disables your SATA 1 port If you use the top it disables SATA 5 and 6

It won't matter mutch. It will be a tiny bit slower due to latency in communication but it won't matter.
