    External hard drive??

    no video signal after upgrading PC (tried many solutions)

    Well, my brother had the EXACT same symptoms but i highly doubt that this is the problem. My brother's problem was the mob (which was msi btw) the capacitors got screwed but since your's is a new one the only way this could happen was due to a power surge. Check the capacitors to be sure though...

    External hard drive??

    You can do it (in theory) but is a bad idea cause external hard drives are much more prone to functionality problems, usb is way slower than sata and you can use this hard drive only at one computer(you need a fresh install for each computer)

    Copying files from a Hard Drive to an external SSD

    Do not format it unless you are 100% sure that this is the problem (it is very dangerous), try connecting the ssd to a usb port on the backplate, maybe the front-panel usbs are not even connected to the mob

    Looking for help building a pc

    Well, agree with bottlegamer you need ddr3 ram and not 4 cause it is not supported. This rig is nice for gaming but it is not the best thing to buy a haswell NOW since the skylakes have been realesed. It is good enough though, also i would not realy trust asrock mobos better go for asus or gigabyte

    PC restarts every few seconds. Makes a weird sound. Need help.

    Your mob is faulty. Check the capacitors, if they have a green liquid on them it means that at some point you psu had a power surge and it screwed your mob
