Exploring the Gaming 7 Part III

Time to look at the storage of the AORUS Z270X Gaming7, which as expected of a high end board does deliver.

  • 2 x M.2 Socket 3 connectors
  • 3 x SATA Express connectors
  • 6 x SATA 6Gb/s connectors (SATA3 0~5)
  • 1 x U.2 (for them blistering fast Intel 750 SSDs)

 

From left to right we spot the U.2 connector which supports one single U.2 device, 1x SATA Express, 2x SATA 6Gb/s and the double stack with 2x SATA Express and 4X SATA 6Gb/s connectors.

 

 

Two M.2 connectors are provided. One is positioned just below the CPU socket, supporting 2242/2260/2280 and 22110 versions. While the second one is located in between the two x16 PCIe slots supporting 2242/2260/2280 SATA and PCIe x2/x2 SSD models.

 

 

As mentioned all boards are based on the Z270 Intel chipset, allowing to max out the performance of your processor and memory.
