Same AM6J/9955HX3D/5090 board teardown independently confirms both accept 2280 drives. Its 1 TB review occupancy is not inherited. Exact selected total 2 TB does not establish whether one 2 TB or two 1 TB drives are installed, so both occupancy cells remain unknown. Installed drive generation is not inferred from slot maximum. The optional slot table is omitted because unknown occupancy currently produces a false zero free-slot count. Published connector capabilities remain documented here.
