I'm trying to connect more hard drives to my PC, but I've only found two SATA ports on my B450M HDV R4.0 motherboard. I've read online that I can connect up to four drives, so I'm wondering if there's a specific adapter I need, or if I'm just missing something about the ports. Can anyone help me figure this out?

You might want to check for hidden ports! On many motherboards, the SATA ports are arranged in a 2x2 stack. So even if you only see two, there could be two more just below them that are a bit hard to spot because cables might be in the way.
I had the same issue! I found the extra ports hidden under the cables as well. Just make sure to look closely!
