Hi how do you know that is capped to PCI-e 2x ? do you have a screen shot from Magician software ? or benchmark? that you can put here ?
Tinkerer
Can confirm PCIe 3.0 X 2.
Hello,
Thx for the information, i see that magic software shows PCIe 3.0 x 2
Have you tried to do a benchmark ? Which score do you have for the write and read speed?
Thx.
Tinkerer
1700MB/s read 1400MB/s write
Thx a lot for the information, i didn’t know if i should buy an SSD SATA or PCIe SSD, now with your information I think I’m going to by the PCIe SSD (Even with only 2 lanes it's faster that an SSD SATA).
One last question how did you install it? which screw did you use and dit you use an spacer or Standoff ?
I hear that if the screw is too long it can touch and damage the mouse pad
Thx
Tinkerer
My model (E5-575G-55KK) included the standoff and screw.

Hi,
Yes, as you have Maximum link width value of 2x, you should be able to achieve half the manufacturers' advertised speed, however, do you have any M.2 SSD installed at the moment? I am asking because the "Slot implemented" marked as yes.
