Lane quantity is dictated by the CPU, not the mobo.
For 4x 4-lane SSDs and a 16-lane GPU, you’d need 32x lanes direct from CPU (chipset lanes are hobbled by the limited chipset-CPU bandwidth). Consumer CPUs don’t come close to supporting such a setup without crippling performance.
In this case, there is no point in multiple drives; just get one or two larger-capacity ones, ideally not consumer-grade.
Why not just get one hench M.2-110 enterprise drive and stick it in the 110-length-capable slot? If it’s PCIe5.0 you’ll get ~14GB/s read/write.
