Hello friend. Thanks for this precious video ! I did installed a new ssd (ADATA PCiE 3). Powered up the PC but no SSD appearing in the explorer. I'll try one more time. But I'd like some guide if you have the time, so that my PC recognize my SSD. I saw somewhere else that I needed to check the BIOs, by pressing F2 at the start of the PC.

@@uFixTek Just an update... So I checked it on the Bios the first time. It was there. Then I could see it on my explorer. Thing is... I did something on my terminal to give me access to delete an Avast file from my "program Files" (I typed 'bcdedit /set {default} bootmenupolicy legacy' to be more specific) ... since then I don't know why, but my PC is taking a long time to boot... and my SSD is no detected, BIOs or explorer included. Do you have any idea why ?

I have already provided an answer to your question in the previous video. Here is a copy of the response: you can easily upgrade your system with 2 x 32GB RAM modules, giving you a total of 64GB of RAM. The recommended RAM can be found at this link: amzn.to/44McL62 For storage, you have the option to install 2 x 2TB NVMe drives, providing a total of 4TB of storage. I suggest using the following high-quality and durable NVMe drive: amzn.to/43yBYQg Additionally, the price for the 2TB option is currently at its lowest.

muchas gracias por su appoyo al canal, mira sobre el m.2 nvme te recomiendo altamente que compress el samsung nvme 980 PRO de 2TB a esta laptop solo se puede poner max capacidad de 2TB en cada ranura. el de 4TB es doble lado y no vas a poder acostarlo. el samsung pro es uno de los mejores y muyyy duradero y confiable. sobre el ram compra 2x 16gb SDRAM DDR4 3200MHZ las que usamos nosotros son esos: amzn.to/3GG8arZ amzn.to/4ahKQyt cualquier duda preguntame. saludos This is an Amazon affiliate link. When you use my links, you are helping to support the channel. 🙏

This laptop includes a built-in M.2 NVMe SSD with a 512GB capacity. You have the option to expand the storage by adding an additional M.2 NVMe SSD, with the capacity of up to 2TB of extra space. The great news is that this expansion doesn't require any complex configurations - it's a straightforward process. If you're interested in replacing the primary M.2 SSD with a larger capacity drive, along with adding a 2TB M.2 SSD for extra storage, you have that flexibility. However, keep in mind that this approach involves performing a fresh installation of Windows on the new SSD. window USB (same for 11 , just type 11 instead of 10) : kzfaq.info/get/bejne/q6qla81j0auRlIE.html installation without MS account useful video: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hZiAp5eryLmvqXk.html installation process of windows (if using windows 11 then integrate the above steps video into this) : kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pbdngcya17yYeoU.html

@@uFixTek thank you kind sir, I believe I’m just gonna keep the 512GB Samsung SSD from the seller on Amazon gave me which I am pretty sure has all the operating systems on it with the bios so don’t want to lose that, and I believe what you are saying is there is a second slow for a Nvme SSD M.2 which I’ll just add a 2TB Nvme SSD with ease you are saying because I believe the

YES you can add a 2nd NVME a 2TB. and also no need to get or touch or do anything with BIOS. BIOS has nothing to do with all this upgrade.

Thank you for providing your feedback! If you'd like to show your support for the channel, you can either like, subscribe, or do both! In response to your question, the main m.2 is gen 4 and 2nd is the gen 3 but it will accept gen 4 nvme, and pm9a1 will be perfect for it, BUT my choice would be the 980 PRO as we do get pm9a1 for data recovery for failure and never got any 980 pro. If you ever have any other questions or requests for future videos, feel free to let me know. cheers!🍻

Thanks for answering so fast and I'm a subscriber now :D Oh I didn't knew that the 2nd slot is gen3. But the question is why my default ssd is so slow (about 3000 read)? Is it because the default ssd is gen 3 itself? And I have another question, when i play games like RDR2 with high graphics on 1080p I get about 88°c cpu temperature and some time slightly peeks at 90 to 95 very fast and comes back on 88 (using msi afterburner)... and i wanna buy an SSD in price range of pm9a1 so i will be have to buy a gen 3 which I think i would be fine... now i have the concerns of the ssd temperature effecting laptop's temperature, i was going for 970 evo plus but I have seen many informations on internet about this SSD getting so much higher than others!! Do you think temp is important? What do you think is the best option for me to get. Thx Sry the comment was too long :)

It is my pleasure to assist you, my friend. Let's address an important aspect upfront: M.2 temperature. If you are considering an NVMe drive up to 2TB in capacity, you won't need a heatsink. Adding a heatsink won't provide any durability or performance benefits. However, if you prefer, you can opt for a slim heatsink to help maintain lower temperatures for the NVMe drive: amzn.to/3qWm4C4. It's normal for NVMe temperatures to reach around 60-70°C. For a 4TB drive, a good heatsink would indeed be advisable. Regarding the default NVMe installation, I recommend installing the Rapid Storage driver (Intel). This will ensure you get the maximum performance from your SSD. Keep in mind that the speeds you achieve during tests will not match the advertised speeds due to several factors. The numbers shown are instantaneous speeds; the actual stable speed is about 10% lower, depending on the brand. The type of files being transferred (video, text only, pictures..) and whether you transferring one large file or many small file also impact the speed. One more thing to note is that when running tests on an SSD with Windows and other services running, the results can be influenced by background processes. Ideally, the best test scenario involves having the SSD isolated without Windows and other services running, and running tests both individually and when paired with another SSD on the correct generation slot. However, it's important to emphasize that a read speed of 3000 is more than sufficient for regular use. Windows and most programs do not utilize this speed, as they work with micro files rather than large chunks of data. Therefore, a standard NVMe SSD will perform just as well for running Windows and programs as a higher-end NVMe with speeds of 10000 read and write, unless you are frequently moving large files between fast M.2 drives. i would choose the 980 Pro or the model you previously mentioned. Shifting focus to CPU and GPU temperatures, it's entirely normal for laptop temperatures to reach 90-95°C under full load. Even with premium thermal paste, these temperatures are often reached due to fan curves. If you wish to maintain cooler temperatures, you can adjust the fan curve to your liking.

Thank you very much man 🙏

It's my pleasure my friend. cheers🍻

@@uFixTek Thank you for the reply, I will give it a try :)

cheers i hope it works 🍻

@@uFixTek I found a small enough flat head and applied a bit of pressure but not too much and it unscrewed with ease. Sorry for taking so long to reply.

Ok i make one.

​@@uFixTek tagged me if you have already vid cleaning this model of laptop it will help alot😭

here is a tuf model i did a cleaning, all models of tuf are 99% same logic my friend if you can follow this video you can do any tuf laptop: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/l7Gja6eSudCUdnk.html

@@uFixTek ok thankyou so much i already subscribe this channel because i want to be expert in computers or laptop someday, thankyou so much you deserve a million subscribers bro

practice and practice and push your limits, and one day you will be at the top of your dreams my friend, 🍻

try a plastic old credit card maybe that could help.

@@uFixTek Got it! Thanks

🫠Regarding your question, if you adding an extra m.2 nvme ont he 2nd slot, then no it will not delete or touch the files. BUT if you replace the main m.2 ssd then sure you will not have anything as all the files are in the drive that you removed. Should you have any further questions or requests in the future, please don't hesitate to ask me. cheers🍻

Regarding your question, you do not need a heatsink for the nvme ssd unless you go 2TB over, then sure you will need a good heatsink. you don't gain performance or loose performance by adding heatsink. there not enough space for a proper heatsink, you can only get a slim copper sheet heatsink. amzn.to/3HBD5GF we have installed on clients laptop for years and personal for year and never had issues.

Thank you for your feedback! If you'd like to show your support for the channel, you can choose to like, subscribe, or even do both! Regarding your question, these laptops are equipped with a GEN 3 chip instead of a Gen 4. While you can indeed install a Gen 4 SSD, it will operate at Gen 3 speeds. The transition to Gen 4 is a hardware-based process and cannot be achieved through software changes alone. It requires the installation of a Gen 4 chip, along with power regulator components and a firmware update to enable the functionality. Should you have any more questions or requests in the future, please feel free to reach out to me.

​@@uFixTekhello, i just spoke yyesterday with Support via chat. they gave me a manual and confirmed that the Slot 1 is the one that supports pcie 4 and Slot 2(the one that comes unnocupied) is gen3 Now i have to basically swap them. i'll try and come back to this video to confirm it worked(as asus support told me it should)

i just check the schematics of the board and yes the main m.2 is gen 4 and 2nd gen 3 my friend. you can go up to 2 TB on each.

@@nenume00Which model is this? FX506HC-HN011T? Ty

Thank you for the feedback! if you wish to support the channel you can LIKE or SUB or both :P regarding your question: sure my friend we have installed a m.2 sata on one client and worked, but update the bios before that.

@@uFixTek thank you! I ended up buying NVME because I don't like the extra work

It's my pleasure my friend. If you have any future questions or requests, please don't hesitate to reach out to me. I'll be happy to assist you.

Thank you for the feedback! if you wish to support the channel you can LIKE or SUB or both :P regarding your question: it can be any make or bran m.2 BUT it has to be NVME , the best are samsung pro: amzn.to/3X3H6c3 economic: amzn.to/3HDHUyC

Thank you for the feedback! if you wish to support the channel you can LIKE or SUB or both :P regarding your question: Yes my friend absolutely it does. we upgraded using this bran without any issue: amzn.to/3WXbiX1

@@uFixTek thank you so much!

You are welcome! its a pleasure to help you😊 if you have any question or request in the future feel free to ask me.

🫠Regarding your question, we have upgraded this laptop to 64gb but double check the max ram here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qrF1fbecu9rMZIU.html ABOUT the Storage max: 110% tested and this are m.2 PCI-E lane you can have up to 4TB single sided chip on this slots 4TB on each m.2 total 8TB . the only single sided nvme i can find are this: amzn.to/4cPrphB all the 2TB are single sided. samsung nvme pro are the best recommended. amzn.to/3JbU1UJ Should you have any further questions or requests in the future, please don't hesitate to ask me. cheers🍻

@@uFixTek Thanks, I did not know I have to look out for the single sided SSD as double sided SSD won't work? What if it is 4 TB double sided? That would mean each side would have 2TB?

@@uFixTek Also, I see on the official specs this model supports Gen 4 SSD (backwards compatible) but not gen 5 and higher?

it is gen 4 and (backwards compatible), and no it is not gen 5 and to get gen 5 is a chip hardware upgrade and not with software. the reason for the single sided is because the m.2 slot is a low profile (very near the motherboard and also there are capacitors and other components on board that will not allow the double sided nvme to lay down and it can cause a damage to the nvme or short on board!, if the had placed a higher m.2 jack then sure you should go with double sided nvme's. also i don't recommend you to go higher than 2TB because anything over 2TB you will need a good heatsink for the nvme controller. but anything up to 2TB doesn't requires heatsink.

@@uFixTek Great information so is it possible to do the upgrade on the motherboard so that it accepts Gen 5 SSDs. Btw, I really appreciate your work and tutorials.

the links to a compatible storage are in the video description my friend, 🔵 TOP SSD NVME: amzn.to/3xBhEQB 🔵 2nd best SSD NVME: amzn.to/3bGEtLt

​@@uFixTek not ssd

it has to be a low profile max 2TB this is a compatible hdd: amzn.to/3JkIFOJ

you can't fit any HDD on this laptop, only m.2 NVME SSD 2280. the links to the m.2 ssd are in video description my friend, you can have up to 2x 2TB nvme in the laptop. but if you don't want to touch your main storage, you ca simply add a 2TB nvme on 2nd storage m2 space.

thanks im less confused subbed

It's my pleasure my friend. 😊 Should you have any questions or requests in the future, please don't hesitate to ask me. cheers🍻🫠

which screw is not opening the case or the m.2?

@@uFixTek m.2

watch this : kzfaq.info/get/bejne/i8d9gpOkrZqZhn0.html at 4:57 or this: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rrKkacd-rtmzaXk.html Cheers🍻

@@uFixTek bro please answer a 1 question for me Does a damaged screw void my laptop warranty??? Because my screw got stripped😢

no, it doesn't void the warranty. as long as the case is not damaged or cracked then just get the warranty and never tell them you opened it.

Regarding your question, yes it can and if you need to double check that to make sure follow this video : kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qrF1fbecu9rMZIU.html we have tested with this rams, and they are very good solid and compatible: amzn.to/43xIHLL

let me clarify this subject to you: SSD refers to storage devices that utilize NAND flash memory, which can come in various form factors, including 2.5-inch drives and M.2 drives. However, there are some important distinctions to make: 1. M.2: This is indeed a form factor, but it can house both SATA-based SSDs and NVMe-based SSDs. The key difference is in the interface and performance. M.2 SATA SSDs use the M.2 form factor but operate at SATA speeds, which are limited compared to NVMe. On the other hand, M.2 NVMe SSDs use the same M.2 form factor but leverage the NVMe protocol for significantly faster data transfer rates. 2. NVMe: This stands for Non-Volatile Memory Express, and it's a protocol designed for flash-based storage like SSDs. NVMe SSDs can come in various form factors, including M.2 and PCIe add-in cards. NVMe SSDs offer substantially faster read and write speeds compared to SATA SSDs, thanks to their more efficient communication with the system's CPU. So, to sum it up: * SSD is a broad term encompassing all solid-state storage devices, including both SATA and NVMe SSDs (you don't just say NVMe even if it is undrestandable). * M.2 is a form factor that can host both M.2 SATA SSDs (which are not as fast as NVMe) and M.2 NVMe SSDs (which are significantly faster). *NVMe is a protocol designed for high-speed SSDs, which can be found in various form factors, including M.2 and PCIe cards.
