    [SOLVED] How to secure a second internal hard drive?

    Thank you for the video. However, if someone would physically remove my second internal hard drive and connect it to a different PC, I'm assuming the restriction wouldn't last. Any way to restrict its use only to my PC?

    Fan compatibility with CPU

    Thanks for the confirmation! One last thing, does this fan cool the CPU well enough? If so, then I can only conclude that my CPU is faulty.

What specifications of the CPU have to be improved? There are some CPU's on sale that have more GZ but the same TDP so I'm not sure which one to...
