Oh, yeah... 3.5 inch 'classic' drives to be specific. It's a 4TB (8TB total) RAID-1 setup for media storage; go figure that the enclosure would crap about before the disks. Already dropped some good cash on those units so I'm pretty solid on sticking with them, migrating data aside. On that...

Rummaged around the thread to see if there were any tips for this but they're either all out of date or wildly overkill for my uses.' So my dual bay RAID enclosure finally bit the dust after 8 years as my plex server storage and now I'm in the market for a replacement. Amazon and Newegg are...

Thank you both, did the transfer today and it went through without a hitch. Glorious NVME transfer averaged 145mb/s on USB 3.0and I didn't even have to mess with directories since it was designated with the original name "Games Drive (D;)" on format. FOR THE HISTORICAL RECORD: Should anyone...

Long story short; I've finally used every byte of storage on my dedicated steam drive. It's a Sabrent Rocket 256 M.2 NVME that I've only managed to fill after updating the games I currently have on there. I'm not a hoarder of digital media so it's taken two years to fill that measly 240GB...

Yep, better safe than sorry when it comes to your system. I'll just get a larger UPS rather than stress over this one. Thanks for the insight.

That does answer a bit. If I'm altering the contents of a drive, then I'm not gaming or doing anything power intensive. I suppose option B is simply returning this unit and forking over a bit more for a higher-output battery.

This is what I want to do. I guess what I really want to know is the worst case scenario if I have the PC running and unplug the unit to simulate an outage. Is there a possibility of damage to my system or the unit?

I feel kinda stupid for not actually researching this further before jumping on a purchase. I recently had a power outage that lasted no more than two literal seconds. My computer came out fine but my old junky server didn't. It was a PSU failure. Luckily, I had a spare. It was that night I...

I do not, didn't even know it was a thing really. By the look of it I don't want that anywhere in my system, the last thing I need is a third party choosing my drivers for me. I can find my display adapter drivers no problem, i keep them properly updated. In the way of AMD's website I have...

I've searched everywhere for and answer and have actually come full circle to the point where I'm revisiting answers I've read before to see if I missed something. The consensus is the same: everyone on this planet whom wants to check their chipset driver version is using intel. I am not. I...

Done and done, great call. Resolved the issue and installed without an issue. New rig is up and running, many thanks! Can confirm.

Fresh as can be. The entire system is brand new with the exception of the GPU, PSU, and 3 case fans.

I just built a new system with my glorious tax return cash for a pretty penny. This is my second build, but it's my first with actual up-to-date hardware. That being said, it would turn out that Ryzen doesn't play well with Windows 7. Well crap. Well my brother has an ISO of Windows 10 lying...
