Can we run a Core Storage Fusion Drive off these extra SATA 5,6 ports?
Specifically 2 "Non OS" mechanical disks? In a core storage fusion "array" block.

Can we run a APFS Fusion Drive off these extra SATA 5,6 ports?

Does anyone have some experience and can advise please?

Is there a limitation with Fusion Drives, as there is with Bootability off these extra SATA 5,6 ports? Is that a "associated" issue because of the limitations of these ports?

*Also, there used to be a pictogram for the MP 3,1 that showed the the naming conventions of all the SATA ports IIRC, but I can't find it, if someone has it and knows what I am talking about, can you share it please? TIA
