Hello,
I have 2 M.2 SSD's in Asus MAXIMUS X FORMULA
Samsung 960 PRO in M.2_1 and Samsung 970 EVO Plus in M.2_2
Additional PCIe equipment is Creative Sound BlasterX AE-5 in PCIe х1_3 and 1080Ti in PCIe x16_1
All equipment located on different root ports
SSD speed in M.2_2 is good
SSD speed in M.2_1 is way bad
Bios is latest (2203)
SATA Controller completely disabled in BIOS - no SATA devices
M.2_1 Configuration: [PCIE mode]
M.2_2 PCIe Bandwidth Configuration: [X4]
I even set PCIe 3.0 x4_3 slot to x2...
Any thoughts please?
There was idea to set 960PRO to M.2_2 but I have water cooling with copper pipes. To open M.2_1 slot I need to remove GPU and drain the water.
I want to change 960PRO 512Gb to 970PRO 1Tb, but before I need to eliminate thoughts that M.2_1 port is working slow or broken.
