I plan on getting the Msi x99a gaming 9 ack. I am getting seagate 2tb desktop sshd for all my games, applications, etc. I've made sure all parts are compatible with windows 10 (same comparability requirements as windows 8.1 according to their main site). I want to get a 60gb or ore ssd. What is the fastest ssd ( more than 6 gbps) that is compatible?

This motherboard supports turbo m.2 and usb 3.1. if not for a low capacity, high performance ssd what could I use these ports for?

If 6gbps is fine what is the point of turbo m.2 at 32gbps? What else can I use it for?
 

It just for people who want faster write and read from SATA SSD. The most beneficial is for the productivity applications, for gamers there aren't many benefits as the SATA 3 SSD covers them.
Also M.2 allows small form factor SSD for ultrabooks and laptops.
