In the link you provided, I am being redirected to Amazon showing the M version of the board. I would avoid it has it has only 4 DDR4 slots which limit you to 64GB.
I would suggest you go with the X399 (Without the M) has it supports 8 DDR4 slots and more NVME slots.
wow good catch I must have had too many browser tabs open....
I would like extra room to scale hard drives but will not need that room right away, this is why I was looking at larger cases.
> I would leave USB and use SATA SSD instead. Kingston 400 series is good.
any particular reason why? I'm fine with either just thought I'd be saving room and would not be much of a performance difference -- but I do not have experience with either just saw people online using USB successfuly in similar rigs...
