I am after an ATX Asus board that supports 4x NVME

Has anyone run four NVMe drives on the ASUS X870 AYW GAMING WIFI with an Asus Hyper M.2 x16 Gen 4 Card?

Can anyone 100% definitely confirm via personal setup or testing, you see the 4 drives ready to run a RAID1 ZFS pool?

Thanks

From the ASUS site, it sounds like you’re able to use all four, but you must use a Ryzen 9000 or 7000 series chip:

Referencing the manual:

Adjust the PCle bifurcation under BIOS settings.
Enable the Hyper M.2 X16 series card under BIOS settings.
Creating RAID with the Hyper M.2 X16 series card is limited to a maximum of 10 SSDs.
