Note
*1 The PCIe x4_1, USB3_E56 and SATAExpress_E1 connectors share the same bandwidth. The PCIe x4_1's default setting is in Auto mode that automically optimizes the system bandwidth. If you use two of these connectors, the system automatically disables the unused connector.
*2 These functions will work depending on the CPU installed
*3 1 supports USB BIOS Flashback, 1 supports Q-Code Logger
