Morning All,

Quick question and probably a fairly obvious one. Did spend some time googling but couldn't figure it out.

The HERO IX has x2 m.2 slots.

m.2_1 which supports PCIE & SATA

&

m.2_2 which supports PCIE Only


Now if you had a PCIE drive in m.2_1 which had windows and all the like installed, is it possible to move that physical m.2 drive to the m.2_2 slot without having to re-install windows?

This would correct an error as that drive was installed in m.2_1 first, the additional m.2 drive that is wanting to be installed is only SATA so can not work in m.2_2. This would then allow the SATA m.2 drive to be installed in m.2_1.

Many Thanks
