It has some effect on the speed of writing and reading. According to the manual, if I have M. 2_1 installed, SATA1 is disabled, what happens when I have both inputs installed?

You skipped part of it. That only applies if a SATA based M.2 drive is installed. Neither of your M.2 drives are SATA based, so SATA1 is operational just fine.
That's specifically stated in the first part of the manual. Page (x)
When M.2_1 Socket 3 is operating in SATA mode, SATA port 2 will be disabled
