    12gen N-series Nas motherboard (topton, cwwk, ... )

    I have the board and can confirm that the PCIe lanes are indeed as described

    12gen N-series Nas motherboard (topton, cwwk, ... )

    The PCIe slot on that board is indeed wired at x4: 2 lanes for 2x Intel i226-V 2 lanes for 2x M.2 4 lanes for PCIe x4 slot 1 lane for ASM1166

    Yes, that was also an idea I had a couple of days ago. It did enable ASPM for the integrated ASM1166 but the C-States were still stuck at C3. Seems like it's only a graphical fix. I tried reloading the ata driver too after force enabling ASPM from linux.

    12gen N-series Nas motherboard (topton, cwwk, ... )

    I asked them about it but so far no response. I also find it weird and I tried all of the available PCIe settings in the BIOS with no success. The PCIe link just breaks after some seconds according to the kernel logs. lspci also reports weird stuff on the integrated ASM1166 controller with ASPM...

    Yes, you can put a ASM1166 into a m.2 slot and it will go to C8 (1GbE) / C6 (2.5GbE) correctly but it kind of defeats the purpose

    Yes, firmware was already recent but I updated it anyway. Bios also updated to the newest version. Still fails when ASPM is enabled

    12gen N-series Nas motherboard (topton, cwwk, ... )

    I received the N100 purple ADLN-NAS-K with the ASM1166 chip. It is possible to enable ASPM but then the ASM1166 stops working. Such a bummer

    It cannot be C10 unless you disabled the JMB585 controller

    Topton 'NAS' motherboard.

    You can create it yourself or manually set the option directly (requires booting windows though)

    Topton 'NAS' motherboard.

    Not possible with that board because it has an JMB585 which prevents ASPM resulting in maximum C3 state

    No, the SATA chip itself does not consume that much power. The issue is that JMB585 prevents the system to go into deeper C-States due to the lack of PCIe native power management (ASPM). That alone accounts for 10-15W at idle

    12gen N-series Nas motherboard (topton, cwwk, ... )

    @artorias: You should probably try first if ASPM is enabled on Windows using the official drivers

    12gen N-series Nas motherboard (topton, cwwk, ... )

    The AMD one has an ASM1166 and an ASM1164 so probably only one is native (maybe even none) AMD has HW encoding too, but.it's encoders are inferior to Intel's

    Don't worry about the LEDs. It's technically a diode so it won't light up if wired up wrong

    Topton 'NAS' motherboard.

    Use a NIC that has a PCIe 3.0 interface which should give you twice the speed

    12gen N-series Nas motherboard (topton, cwwk, ... )

    The package states are the important ones and all of those chinese N100/300 boards use an JMB585 which is why package state will be stuck at C3 at maximum The AMD board is interesting as it uses both an ASM1164 and ASM1166 for the SATA ports. If it just wasn't for AMDs notoriously bad video...
