At first i thought it was the SM951 that was the problem and that swapping it out to another M.2 drive that would work would be expensive o.O		The Mobo is supporting M.2 drives, but '''the designer must have had a brainfart''' that day because the on-board controller is attached to a PCIe X2 port !!
