The board has a M.2 NGFF M-keyed slot (Next Generation Form Factor)Your pc can use both PCIe Gen2 x2( not in x4) & SATA3, Double or single sided with an M-KEY ( slot in the card plug) with width/length of 2242 (22mm wide x 42mm long) or 2260 or 2280

And before anyone says an M-Keyed PCIe runs at x4, not in this machine, only configured to run PCI-e x 2 lanes
