PCI_E1~2: PCIe Expansion Slots
⚠
Important
When adding or removing expansion cards, always turn off the power supply and
∙
unplug the power supply power cable from the power outlet. Read the expansion
card's documentation to check for any necessary additional hardware or software
changes.
∙ If you install a large and heavy graphics card, you need to use a tool such as MSI
Gaming Series Graphics Card Bolster to support its weight to prevent deformation
of the slot.
SATA1~4: SATA 6Gb/s Connectors
These connectors are SATA 6Gb/s interface ports. Each connector can connect to one
SATA device.
⚠
Important
∙ Please do not fold the SATA cable at a 90-degree angle. Data loss may result
during transmission otherwise.
SATA cables have identical plugs on either sides of the cable. However, it is
∙
recommended that the flat connector be connected to the motherboard for space
saving purposes.
∙ SATA4 will be unavailable when installing M.2 SATA SSD in the M.2 slot.
