Have you considered incorporating newer (nvme) technology? e.g.

Whether compatible with the Q67 chipset I don't know, but it would be a shame if
not. OTOH, that it requires an X16 slot might imply X4 cannot provide enough
bandwidth for 4 M.2 nvme sticks, but maybe X4 would be good enough for 4 M.2 SATA
sticks. Limiting to X4 seems to limit M.2 nvme stick count to 2, and thus maybe
why you're finding only X8 hosts.
