I think NVMe slots are actually pretty standard nowadays. Particularly so for gaming motherboards. I think plenty of gaming motherboards actually have at least two slots with support for NVMe RAID.

There are 1TB NVMe SSDs (Phison, Silicon Motion) that are going for $100-110 right now and you could get 500GB NVMe for ~$60.
