Posted February 20, 2021 Hi all, I own an X570 AORUS MASTER board. I currently have 3 sata ssds on ports 0, 1 and 2, also 2 nvme m.2 drives one on the top slot and the other on the bottom. I have an elgato card on the bottom most pcie slot and a 3080 on the top most slot. The manual is confusing. I put an m.2 drive on the middle slot but the pc won't detect it. I know it's not the drive as it works on the other slots. How can I enable ALL THREE M.2 slots? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted February 20, 2021 Per the manual you should have access to all the ports since you're using PCIe M.2 cards. What CPU are you using? With both an Elgato and 3080, plus two PCIe storage cards is it possible you're out of PCIe lanes? Be sure to QUOTE or TAG me in your reply so I see it!

Posted February 20, 2021 Author I'm not at home now but when I get home I'll remove the elgato card and see if that does it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't able to figure out how to enable all M.2 slots, so I just went back to using the middle and bottom M.2 slots, and then populated SATA ports 0, 1 and 2 for a total of 5 drives. I appreciate the suggestions! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
