It came from my dead 2014 MBP. What form factor or whatever is this? The connector on it does not look like all my other M.2 drives. What kind of USB enclosure do I need to connect this to my new Mac?

If everything goes well, next week I should be up with a computer made of new and some re-used parts. My target is productivity performances/productivity features. So, gaming performances are not a priority, but comfort for everyday use is. Biggest bottlenecks are photo editing, video editing...

Placed an order with Amazon, and they elected to put electronics in a box with magnets for shipping. Only proposed separation was a bit of wadded paper. When I previously ordered less intense magnets from overseas, they wrapped them in about 8cm of foam (aside from the magnet packaging...

My MB is a Asus Z170m-Plus. As far I have look up on the manual, it says that it support NGFF, wich is the old standard for m.2 right? I talked with Asus Support and they said that it's not compatible with the NVME, only with SATA, but on the the MB itself says "M.2 X4 PCIe 3.0" so I'm thinking...

Hello, I have a query about my boot disk, which seems to be unusually slow. My boot time is about 60-seconds, with the (C) drive running at around 100% for the next 60-seconds once booted. Understable that it's in use while loading apps, but I'm surprised an NVME is at 100% doing these tasks...

Purchasing a 2TB NVMe drive. For some reason Samsung sells a PRO version of the 990 as well as a non 'PRO'. The PRO version costs $100 more. Is it worth it or is this just marketing?

One of my notebooks is a Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 13ACN5 with a Ryzen 5800U APU, which actually saw relatively little action: it only had around 280 hours on the clock when it started to run into problems booting Windows while Ubuntu still worked, but also reported drive errors (both OS shared the...

Hi everyone. My question is in the topic in tl;dr. As much as I understand after reading about the benefits of a DRAM chip in an SSD, it helps to provide a map to the SSD of where some recent information is located for the SSD to quickly identify that file location and immediately get to it...

I have been searching for the past few days for an NVME enclosure that will deliver true USB4 speeds, that I can easily swap NVME's out of. I saw the ZikeDrive, Satechi, and OWC Express 1M2. I don't have a lot of confidence or trust in deciding between any of these. There might be newer options...
