MSI Z97MGaming M.2 PCIe Support

Hi guys,

do any of you know whether the MSI Z97M gaming will be able to take full advantage of say an Samsung XP941 PCIe M.2 SSD?

I can't seem to find how many lanes are dedicated to this on the board?

Thanks!

Only mentioned up to 10GB/s speeds, will most likely make full use of the SSD.

Yeah, read that as well. Apparantly I need 4 pciE M.2 lanes to support it fully and not sure if the board has that or only 2...

Apologies for the bump, but I have searched all over the internet with no luck.

Can anyone shed some light on this, any MSI experts around?

Thanks.
