What slot can I convert to a PCIE 16x riser? The 'M.2 M' or the 'M.2 E' slot? Or can i run a GPU in both slots?

Hi guys, The market is full with PCIE 1x slot to 4x PCIE 16x converters, for mining. For folding, the preferred minimum is a PCIE 3.0 1x slot per card. Using a PCIE 1x slot to 4x slots of PCIE 16x ,would slow down each card considerably, and is not recommended. My motherboard has 1x PCIE 16x...

Hi! I just received an Intel SSD 6 M.2 drive and ran into the problem of it not being recognised as a boot drive when trying to boot from it, post installing a fresh copy of Windows on my system. I have checked a number of other threads with the same issue and followed their steps, but without...

I have an unused m.2 nvme ssd and thought of installing it into an older laptop to replace its HDD in the 2.5" bay. I went online and purchased an adapter which turned out to be M.2 NVMe > U.2 (SFF-8639 I assume) (link : https://bit.ly/2UPnvw9). So, I looked up online for a Sff-8639 to SATA...

Hi, have an Asus H370-I motherboard which comes with a m.2 SSD passive heat sink - the worst one because it increases the SSD’s temperature with 3C. Now I’m interested in a replacement and I noticed Cryorig Frostbit M.2 SSD Cooler; any opinions about it? Any other ideas about how to cool a m.2...
