Asus Z170 Maximus 8 Hero Gaming (M.2 Key Type?)

[xrhaomx]

Can anybody tell me what the Key-type for the M.2 slot on the Asus Z170 Maximus 8 Hero Gaming Motherboard is?

I am hoping type M!

In the manual or specs online state the following
1 x M.2 Socket 3 with M Key, type 2242/2260/2280/22110 storage devices support (PCIE 3.0 x4 and SATA Modes)*
* When the M.2 Socket 3 is operating in SATA mode, SATA port 1 will be disabled.

I did have a look at specs online but did not find this information.

Thank you :)

Hi xrhaomx,

You can find the complete spec sheet here:

This part of the information is under the "Storage" section.
