    Question Need Help with possibly dead M.2 Recovery - “Please back up your data and replace your hard drive” ?

    Oh one more thing, is there any difference in getting the 980 over the 970? Probably the first is faster than the latter.

    I see now. Yeah I had the WD Green at the very top-first slot. So I will put the new EVO in the slot below.

    Gotcha. Also, how come I have to put the new M.2 in the slot where the WD Green wasn't in? What's the "theory" behind that. Just curious lol.

    Question Need Help with possibly dead M.2 Recovery - “Please back up your data and replace your hard drive” ?

    Is it possible Is it possible then to just copy the files I want from the WD Green (if I can access the WD Green) and put them onto the new M.2 and give it a new start of windows? Also I'm curious how to backup files before things like this happen? Do I backup my files, in the future, onto a...

    Yeah nah, no backup for the WD Green. So is there just no way to clone it over to the future new one? Cool, I will have a look at the 970

    No, the OS is on the WD Green M.2. I was using it as a boot drive. Not the WD Black HDD, I am using that to store games onto.

    What do you mean by readable? I am unfamiliar. When I tried rebooting after seeing the message it would just take me back to the message again. I turned off an option to disable the message and it would keep taking me to the BIOS instead. The warning message could recognize the name of the...

    Never knew that, thanks for the info. What is a good M.2 you would recommend? Obviously, I won’t be buying the WD model again after this.

    [SOLVED] Monitor Black + Keyboard Mouse not lighting up

    Sorry, I've been playing around with it for a bit. No, it's not the GPU. I tested it on my other PC and it worked fine. I managed to get to the BIOS. It doesn't want to boot to the m.2 nvme now. Every time I reboot or save and exit the BIOS, it sends me back to it.

    [SOLVED] Monitor Black + Keyboard Mouse not lighting up

    Update: Turned monitors on and off. Now whenever I put in the HMDI cable into the GPU or MB it will say "HMDI No Signal Detected"
