 PE2 – x16 (Gen3, x8 lanes from CPU, shares 8 of PE1’s 16 lanes)
 PE3 – x4 (Gen3, x4 lanes from PCH)
M.2 Slot Breakdown
M.2 Lane Distribution
 M.2 Key-M (80mm) – x4

 This motherboard does NOT have any lane replication via PLX; all lanes are
native and derived from CPU or PCH. This also allows for improved backwards
compatibility for Gen 2 devices.
