💡 Pro Tip
To get the absolute fastest storage speeds, install your primary NVMe SSD in the top M.2 slot (M2A_CPU). This slot is wired directly to the CPU and supports blazing-fast PCIe 4.0 x4 speeds when paired with a Ryzen 3000 or 5000 series processor. If you need to update the BIOS for a newer CPU, simply use the Q-Flash Plus button on the rear I/O with a USB flash drive—no CPU or RAM required!
