Your motherboard has 6 SATA ports, these are used for hard drives, internal optical drives (DVD/Blu ray drives) and 2,5" SATA SSD's.

Your motherboard also has 2 M.2 slots for SATA SSD's. There are two types of M.2 drives: those that use the SATA and those that use the PCIE interface. PCIE is the faster of the two, which is what the 970 Evo uses.

 

This note is saying, if you use a particular M.2 SSD in a particular slot, some other slots get disabled. In your case, with a 970 Evo in slot 1: no funny business happens.

But, depending on the configuration of your M.2 slots (so depending on whatever else you might put in those slots over the years), some other ports may be disabled.

This image from MSI's manual might be able to explain it much clearer:

Your use case in this particular build, is the bottom right one.

 

Also, the 970 Evo Plus is a great choice for an M.2 PCIE SSD.
