The ROG Hyper M.2 card is bundled as an accessory.
Ensure to enable the ROG Hyper M.2 card under BIOS settings.
When ROG Hyper M.2 card is installed on PCIEX16(G5)_1, Hyper M.2_1 slot
can support PCIe 4.0 x4 mode. When ROG Hyper M.2 card is installed on
PCIEX16(G5)_2, Hyper M.2_1 slot can support PCIe 5.0 x4 mode. When ROG Hyper
M.2 card is installed on PCIEX16(G4), Hyper M.2_1 and Hyper M.2_2 slots can
support PCIe 4.0 x4 mode.
When ROG Hyper M.2 card is installed on PCIEX16(G5)_1 or PCIEX16(G5)_2,
Hyper M.2_2 slot will be disabled. When ROG Hyper M.2 card is installed on
PCIEX16(G4), Hyper M.2_1 and Hyper M.2_2 slots can support PCIe 4.0 x4 mode.
We recommend installing the ROG Hyper M.2 card to the PCIEX16(G4) slot.
Enable the PCIEX16(G4) to support x4/x4 mode for 2 SSDs under BIOS settings.
