Do not infer PCIe maximum per connector from installed drive. Independent verification actual page 17 image depicts the three-fan option, so its cooling layout and factory depicted drive population are not applied to retained 5070 Ti two-fan tier. Exact XB96 primary expansion row independently says 2x M.2 includes used. Guide supports socket layout only.
