    Question GPU Upgrade Help

    1920x1080 and 280hz. I often struggle to even get a consistent 280 frames in CS so that’s the problem.

    Question GPU Upgrade Help

    That is a great point I did not think of that. I have an EVGA 850W gold that I’ve had ever since I started with pc’s. Didn’t realize how old it was until now. Going on 9 years If I remember correctly lol

    Question GPU Upgrade Help

    I am looking to upgrade my pc as I have been getting some slower frame rates lately and my components are quite outdated but I am not fully sure what would be best to upgrade first and what I should upgrade to. My specs: - i9 10900k @ 5.0 GHZ - 1080ti 11gb - 64gb ddr4 3000mhz ram - 1tb Samsung...

    Question Trouble cloning a failing M.2 SDD to a new HDD because of SMART error ?

    Well, I appreciate the info. Haven't ever been taught about their importance, but I guess this is just a hard learning lesson. Do you recommend just having a second drive that you regularly put backups onto and delete old ones after making a new backup?

    Question Trouble cloning a failing M.2 SDD to a new HDD because of SMART error ?

    So I am getting very conflicted things here on this thread. Honestly, I am not sure that there was anything so important on this drive that I am willing to pay someone to recover it for me. I was just trying my best to possibly get this data back on my own as it would make my life a lot easier...

    Question Trouble cloning a failing M.2 SDD to a new HDD because of SMART error ?

    Only had one drive installed unfortunately. Looks like I am out of luck then.

    Question Trouble cloning a failing M.2 SDD to a new HDD because of SMART error ?

    Thank you for the info, if you think it is still worth trying at this point, which one do you recommend from those 2? Appreciate it! Also, arent these for Linux?

    Question Trouble cloning a failing M.2 SDD to a new HDD because of SMART error ?

    Are there any repair tools or apps that allow you to see what failed to cause the SMART error? Is there any hope of possibly fixing it by putting a bandaid on the issue until I can get the data off and onto another drive? It is also important to note that my BIOS does not show this drive and...

    Question Trouble cloning a failing M.2 SDD to a new HDD because of SMART error ?

    Below is the screenshot from what it is showing when I try to boot normally. I have not been successful in creating and image of the disk either. It seems like no matter what method I use, I run into some sort of error. I might just attempt to copy any paste all of my data over and see if that...

    Question Trouble cloning a failing M.2 SDD to a new HDD because of SMART error ?

    Yes, I am just going to send it in for replacement. No point in trying to fix it myself when it's not even that old.

    Question Trouble cloning a failing M.2 SDD to a new HDD because of SMART error ?

    Yes, already contacted them and just waiting to get things fixed and data recovered before I go through with the RMA. It should easily be under warranty.

    Question Trouble cloning a failing M.2 SDD to a new HDD because of SMART error ?

    Hi, I have tried running the chkdsk command but I am not able to, since the drive is write-protected. One of my main problems is that I cannot get past this and I have tried many of the possible methods for this. I could also try the method of ignoring the possible errors as the write protection...

    Question Trouble cloning a failing M.2 SDD to a new HDD because of SMART error ?

    Yes, I am. Sorry, I may be coming across very dumb, lol. So, if I were to wipe what I have now that was cloned to my HDD, install windows on it, then transfer all the data I would be good? I feel like you would lose some of the functionality no? I hoped that I would be able to move the old...
