Can the SSD on PCIe cards such as M.2 etc be used in the GA-Z87X-UD5H motherboard?
Limitations? [boot-up?] other PCIe cards at same time.
Please point me to explanations of [limitations such as use with other SSD in SATA slots]-if only some PCIe SSD can be used on this Gigabyte board.
A good article about compatibility of this type of SSD would be great.
Does the operation system running matter if the SDD that goes into PCIe slots? Or is it ONLY hardware dependent?
I have seen mention of adapters. It appears to me that the PCIe cards fit into the PCIe slots. Why are adapters required for some motherboards? Would I need adapters for my Gigabyte motherboard?
I have several SATA [6GB] SSDs but the speeds listed for the PCIe SSDs seems worthwhile upgrade if there are not any associated killer negatives with these types of storage.
I see ads for 1TB M.2 Intel SSDs for less than $100 USD. Sounds good. Is it?
I run a mix of apps. Little or no video editing. Mostly web browsing, playing videos, Photoshop creation of graphics and improvement of photographs for printing as 11x 14". Windows 10 and Mac OSX High Sierra Hackintosh. I use the motherboards video. No gaming.
