System SSD. It's always useful to separate system from storage. As far as I understand both SSDs are gonna get CPU lanes. |
The manual is surprising vague on this. In the old days ASUS use to include a diagram that showed where all the pci-e lanes coming from but that not included in manual. That being said on page 1-13 the 3 bullet points I interpreted as M.2_1 uses cpu PCI-E lanes and the M.2_2 uses the chipset PCIE-E lanes.
Also there only 20 available pcie lanes for ryzen 5000 series (there 24 total but 4 reserve for commination to chipset) and 16 always dedicated to the PCI-E 16 slots so there really no way both could be from the cpu.
Not that you really going to notice the difference in real life.
