You're right. That's an apt description of having PCIeX4 capability and putting a SATA stick in it. I didn't find out the difference until after I had bought two SATA M.2 sticks for motherboards with PCIeX4 capability. What you get though is backwards compatibility and flexibility, since motherboard M.2 sockets are rather more limited in supply than SATA ports. M.2 vs NVME: What's the difference? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fJCHx7mZEKo 9 minutes https://www.ureach.eu/index.php/en/newsroom/item/291-cheetah-or-kitten https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/XHAAAOSw2dBdkCHK/s-l1600.jpg -- Evolution as taught in public schools is religion, not science.
