X570 - Looking for a gigabit motherboard with 8 SATA + M.2 X 3

I was looking to get a MB for 3900x, but I do NOT want any SATA ports. It is such a waste of resources and room in 2019.

Many users have SATA ssd laying around and even spinning rust. Can't phase out SATA ports just yet.

hopefully never! they have 80tb drives coming out when will they have 80tb nvme drives out? some of us use data and dont want to run multiple boxes to host more drives.

No it's not. any ASUS or ASRock x570 board with 8 sata and 3xnvme will have the exact same issue. You only have that many lines / connections available from the chipset and honestly it is more than enough for the consumer platform. If you need that many drives (which 99.999% of users don't) then you have to buy into threadripper platform or Intel HEDT.

Just found that i'm that 0.001% of user. I have 10 HDD and plan to move all to new system. Just realize Gigabyte and MSI board all only have 6 SATA. Asrock and Asus have 8 SATA though.
Currently looking at Asus Strix X570-E Gaming and it have 8 SATA ports. Anyone know if all 8 SATA ports is usable if i plan to use both of M.2 for PCIE4.0 NVMe SSD?

I actually have the strix-e but even from the manual I wasn't able to figure out what gets disabled under what circumstances (the manual doesn't say anything about disabling). But I only have 1 m2 ssd and 5 sata drives.
