ssd

Hi Everyone Can anyone recommend a gaming PC build for a budget of £800 to £1000 maximum spend? A good case, fairly decent graphics card, CPU, Nvme ssd etc... I was thinking of going the AMD route but what do you suggest? Thanks,

Hi all, I built my system back in November and am using a Corsair MP510 480GB m.2 Gen 3 SSD for my OS drive. The drive is working fine (read/writes etc), however when loading a game with a lot of heavy mods, the drive makes a high pitched sound/noise. As soon as the game has loaded, this stops...

I recently picked up a Kingston A2000 M2 SSD that I wish to use as a secondary storage drive. I installed it into my M2 slot and while I can see it detected in the Bios it doesn't show as a drive under windows. Screenshots of drives in Bios: https://imgur.com/a/K6vUeOA I tried some google-fu...

Hi all. My friend has given me his Windows system, which is about 6 years old, to try and diagnose. The original issue was that it’d boot into the blue screen which gives him options like system restore, start up repair etc. I formatted his hard drive, reinstalled windows and everything seemed...

Imagine that you have an application which uses all your RAM and then some. As such it uses the pagefile. Where is the best location for your pagefile? SSD, M.2, or Optane? Does PCIe v4 make a difference? Has anyone done tests?

I have a laptop Legion y530 ( i7 7850h + 1060 + 2tb hdd ) and about year ago i decided to buy a SSD for it. Problem with this new ssd ( ADATA XPG SX6000 Lite 512 GB M.2 2280 PCI-E x4 Gen3 NVMe ) was that at the beginning when i installed clean win 10 without deleting previous win 10 from hdd...

Hi All, Does anyone know if you can use Intel Optane SSDs on a TRX40 motherboard..? Mainly interested in the Optane SSD 900P and 905P devices. Thanks for the wisdom, Paul

I recently moved from an matx form factor to itx, I replaced my storage hdds with shiny new ssds and my motherboard with a B-GRADE aorus X570 i pro wifi (which might be the problem) no other components were changed apart from the case ofc. When my system wiped for the first time I blamed it on...

Good morning all, As the title says I'm asking which of the two companies has the better warranty, RMA support in the UK. I'm looking at either getting a Samsung or Western Digital M.2 SSD for my next build. So hopefully you lovely people who have much more experience than I do may be able to...

Hi everyone, I have windows 10 Pro (64bit) OS installed on an SSD which is my boot drive (non raid). I have 4 HDDs bound as RAID members for my data. The machine has been working without fault for a long time. Post a windows update today my machine borked out. Windows reported...

I'm looking to upgrade on the cheap, spending up to about £100 per component, from my obsolete computer to a slightly more relevant one. I would like to be able to use modern game-development platforms such as Unity, Photoshop, 3D editing tools like Blender, video editing software. I don't need...

t is a complicated wish mash of abbreviations, acronyms and hardware specs and I am just starting to understand it. I Bought a 2015 iMac with a 1TB HDD recently and as my last iMac had an internal SSD it all feels very slow. I bought an external SSD and an enclosure and it works well booting...

Which is better? And what about the bitlocker thing, is it true it needs a support of ssd? /edit: It's for ultrabook, from time to time I do some virtualization and look for performance but I do not care for extreme TBW.

So a few year ago my WD Black died within a year suddenly and didnt check if it was under warranty or anything (I never registered anything) but they did say it should last 10 years or something ridiculous. Separately shortly after it went so did my Kingston ssd but it died is strange...

Hi all, Upgraded my rig, desk & case etc & thought I'd share some photo's. I didn't intend on upgrading the mobo & CPU at first, but I damaged some pins on the old one when I dropped a micro fibre cloth on it (n00b move, I know). so now the specs are (if anyone cares) Ryzen 3700x Asus ROG...
