Natively, 4x SATA III ports.
There is also an M.2 port. Use of that may disable one or more SATA ports on the motherboard. Section 1-7 in the user manual shows the applicable configurations.

So i assume one of the slot is taken by HDD and will it possible if i fit in two SSDs safely?

I am thinking of buying a 120 gb for now for windows and maybe later a 500gb one.

Yes.
And don't get a 120GB. That is too small. Start with a 250GB or larger.

And will the m.2 slot support nvme ssd?
This is what it says on the m.2 slot

1 x M.2 connector (Socket 3, M key, type 2242/2260/2280/22110 SATA and PCIe x4/x2* SSD support)

• Actual support may vary by CPU.
• Supports only M.2 SATA SSDs when using an AMD Athlon™-series/ 7th Gen. A-series or Athlon™ X4 APU.

Depends on cpu being used.
With A-series APU or Athlon cpus only SATA M.2 drives are supported.
