P8Z77-v Mobo Question
I've got the above MOBO and the specs show 4 6gb ports, but I only see 2 ( gray) and in BIOS it also shows as 2.
Asus support says there are 4.

Are you certain that your motherboard is not the AsusP8Z77-V LX or AsusP8Z77-V Deluxe versions as they both have only 2 6gb grey ports?
You can use Speccy to be sure:

I see it shows 2 6gb ports on some specs and 4 6gb ports on the pic I posted.
Also, Asus said there are 4.
Really confusing.
I would just go with what you can physically see :)
If the LX and Deluxe only have 2 ports, then it stands to reason your wont have more than that.

Also, Asus confirmed it.
Are there 2 SATA III ports controlled by Asmedia or another 3rd party chipset? Do you not have 4 banks of SATA ports on your board? If so, the dark blue and grey should be SATA III
