*1 Support PCIe bifurcation for RAID on CPU function.
*2 When a device in SATA mode is installed on the M.2_1 slot, SATA6G_2 port cannot be used.
*3 The USB_E1 port, USB_E2 port, ADD_GEN 2 header and the two RGB headers share the bandwidth. But the ADD_GEN 2 header and the two RGB headers will affect transfer rate only when you adjust their lighting effect.
