For my new build i went with a Samsung 980 500 GB, and i thought i'd add a 1 TB HDD as a 2nd drive, but it's not much more to get another SSD.
However i'm really confused as to how PCI lanes work, and if my 2nd drive should be another m.2 or a SATA SSD.
I'm running an i7-13700K with a ROG...

I just built my new PC, which everything went smoothly for the most part. However I have 2 different M.2 SSDs, one of which, just isn't showing up in the BIOS or Disk Manager. My WD Black SN 770 shows up fine and has my Windows Installation on it. However the WD Blue that I also purchased does...

Hey guys, so I have an m2 (samsung 970 evo) on an Asrock B450 Pro4
Can I put an additional M.2 like the 970 or 980 or does the motherboard not have more M.2 slots?
Is my only option an SSD like 870 etc?
Thanks!
Hi,
I have a GIGABYTE Aorus B550 Elite V2 motherboard, currently running 1 M.2 NVME & 4 SATA drives, planning due to two failing mechanical HDDs to replace them with 1 SATA SSD & 1 m.2 NVME SSD, thing is, I can't figure out if my board allows to use all M.2 & SATA ports at the same time, I know...
I received ADATA m2. SSD. But there are two components like this. I know what the right one is. Isn't this the only thing I need? What is the left one? I googled and watched how to install this on youtube, but they seem to show only the thing on the right-side.
I use my pc for 2 years with a ryzen 5 2600 and an M.2 ssd. I recently upgraded to Ryzen 5 3600 and after that my mb just stopped reading the M.2 boot drive.
It's not installed in the wrong slot cuz it was already there.
I have already updated the BIOS for different versions (including the last...

I bought this ssd 2 months ago and it was working fine. Suddenly stopped working properly after an windows update. There was this issue with my motherboard ( Gigabyte) where sata hdd or ssd on the second slot would disconnect and reconnect randomly. Now the ssd is not being detected at all. Also...
I have a motherboard with one M.2 slot, which has Windows 10 and a few other programs on it. I bought a larger M.2. How would I get the OS to the new M.2 since I only have 1 slot?
Hi
This is a bit of a shot in the dark, but would anyone happen to know this kind of screw? And the kind of screwdriver and its size I'd need? I'm trying to replace an old M.2 SSD in my MSI laptop, and every screwdriver I've tried just doesn't work. They're either too big or too thin. :-\...
Hello, I'm not a big Tech savvy but I understand stuff when it comes to computers, but I've never had this in my life, so it's new to me.
When I bought my Z490 Gaming X Gigabyte motherboard, I also bought an m.2 SSD to go along with it. I installed my components including m.2 but it wouldn't...
For a short while, my M.2 disappeared from my computers" Devices and drives" section and my Bios.
When the M.2 showed back up though, All my games and apps were gone, but nothing else.
Will I have to reinstall everything? I am using windows 10 with 16 GB of RAM and an Intel i7-9700k CPU. I...

Hello,
I'm a bit of a novice builder. I bought a new M.2 SSD because the old one was full, and smaller capacity. I was planning to use the new, faster one as my OS boot drive, and install windows on it with a USB, but the old M.2 with Windows currently on it is still installed, and I'm not...
I only have one m.2 drive and 4 places for more in the future. Do I need to remove the tape from all 4 before I turn it on? I've heard remove just because its plastic in a computer and leave alone because it won't melt and will keep it clean for future use. Or is it just preference?

Hello all!
I see a ton of information about various issues regarding using a M.2 on a PCIe riser (I'm veteran enough not to be scared of BIOS settings). But not a whole lot on whether it is a good idea to put an OS on a expansion slot. I'm running a 5950x on a Dark Hero with a 3090. I have a...
I have an M.2 I pulled from one of my laptops that I wanted to remove files from. I have an EVGA z370 Classified K motherboard so I have 2 M+B key M.2 slots. One of them is occupied by my OS, a Samsung 970 EVO. So I put the new M.2 into the slot under my 2080 graphic card. However, I don't...

Hey everyone. Please see my saved parts here
I tried cloning over the 500GB M.2 boot drive to the 1TB M.2 drive (with Marcrium). But I can’t boot from the 1TB Drive after cloning.

Hi all
Lets say I have windows 10 running its os on a sata ssd and had 3x hyper-v VM's os running on a m.2 NVMe 4th gen each(3x). Will the vm's run faster if I upgrade the host sata ssd to a m.2 NVMe 4th gen ? Every .5 of a sec matters.
