I am having Problem with the SATA 6G_5 and SATA6G_6 on my Motherboard "Asus Prime B350 Plus" whenever I connect any SATA drive, either a HDD or a Sata DVD it won't be recognized.
When I put them on ports 1 - 4 then everything is fine, but 5 and 6 can't be recognized.

The 1 - 4 Sata ports are facing downside up, while the last two 5 and 6 are on the side of the MB.

I marked it on this Picture to understand what I mean ( the X is the two fulty ports 5 and 6 )

Is it a faulty board? Or do I have to enable somthing in the BIOS or what ever the Problem is, can someone please help me?

From the board specs:
https://www.asus.com/us/Motherboards/PRIME-B350-PLUS/specifications/
-------------------
4*The M.2 Socket shares bandwidth with the SATA6G_5/6 ports, therefore the SATA6G_5/6 ports cannot be used when a SATA/PCIE mode M.2 device is installed.
5*The M.2 Socket shares bandwidth with the SATA6G_5/6 ports, therefore the SATA6G_5/6 ports cannot be used when a SATA/PCIE mode M.2 device is installed.
