Following my upgrade from an AMD Ryzen 5 1600 to a AMD Ryzen 5 5600X, I've encountered an issue where my M.2 SSD boot drive is not recognized. This issue did not exist prior to the CPU upgrade, and I had updated my BIOS just a week before replacing the CPU and I had no issues. I've attempted a...
Just bought a new Dell XPS 15 (9520) with the specs indicated below. I deliberately didn't spring for the upgraded hard drive as Dell wanted close to $300 to get to a 2tb drive and so I'm going to buy one and upgrade myself - very comfortable with opening laptops etc. My question is about which...
Hello guys!
I wasn't exaggerating when I mentioned that it always took 50 minutes for my PC to boot up, but it wasn't like that before when I first built my PC. It would normally take around 5-10 seconds and my PC is already good to use.
I always time my boot up time when it starts showing the...
Hi,
So I'm looking to buy an M.2 SSD which will hold my OS and maybe a ~2 games. I've narrowed down my options to the Crucial P5 Plus 500GB and WD Black SN850 500GB.

Hi,
Today I bought a Samsung 970 EVO 500gb NVMe drive, installed it and everything went smooth. Drive showed up, and works.
