what should I do when i get the I/O error when trying to initialize the ssd? my kingston ssd does get recognised, but after trying to initialize the drive, I get the error and after that the drive suddenly isn't available. it does keep showing as unkown device, but the memory size disapears underneath it. does this mean the drive is dead or is there a way to fix this. seen that the drive does do the psu reset...do i need to rebuild the MBR?
just FIY this is by no means a viceo bashing AMD, it just seems, they are kind of stagnant with this generation, similar to what intel did inbetreen the 3rd and 7th generation of CPUs. Also interesting to note and has been brought to my attention: It seems, in applications the power limit seems to be the big limiting factor. (in gaming also but not as much) this means, if the CPUs were ran at the same power level as the 7000 Series, Performance would be quite a bit higher (depending on scenario 5-10 Percent.
Great video - I have also successfully a WD BlueSA510 by connecting via USB to Ubuntu 24.04, (with both power and data connected), and running the Disks utility. Using the Check File System option the drive's activity light came up and the drive started to re-establish all the files. The process took over 3 hours to recover approx 120GB of data, but was successful. No data loss.
i have a ssd which i use as an external drive with a sata to usb connector case, it connects and shows the files when plugged for a second and disconnects immediately (not showing on diskpart etc afterwards). it's not the sata2usb adapter case or the cables or the laptop port, i checked it via different sata storage and it works. what could be the problem, ssd is kinda new, too, i bought it 6 months ago or so. i am a 30+ year pc user and i am good at troubleshooting at software side but i am not very versed at hardware side honestly. oh also, i tried the ssd on different laptops with different operating systems, same problem. and lastly, i connect the ssd to my laptops internally, i plugged out the sata hdd with linux inside, and i plugged in the ssd, it's not recognized in the bios, but i can see the damn files even though it's just for a second when i plugged it into windows externally.
I once in a while run into error-code 0xc000000e. When I tried to solve it, I've found out, my Samsung SDD seems gone. So far it seems to work that I disconnect the SDD from the PC, and connect it again. Problem solved! But it may take a month then it happens again. Wonder what causes it...
7 years ago no one could really come up with any reason to buy amd for gaming orher than its price but you got what you paid for. Today with amds pricing, i can not think of any reason at all to buy intel. I can think of about 20 reason you WOULD NOT want to buy intel. If the pricing leaks for 9000 is accurate.. no one should buy intel. Literally at all at all. It would be ne incredibly stupid no matter what your workload.
The only reliable intel processors are what’s powering my mid-2015 MBP with the AMD R9 M370 graphics on board and 2.5 GHz core i7. The other is my mid-2009 core2 Duo MBP. Lucky i jumped ship to AMD Ryzen 5 7600 CPU and Nvidia 4070 12 Gb system before this mess. Intel is Boeing all the way
Jede cpu ist bettoffen da diese einstellungen als standard integriert sind und jede cpu damut làuft auch wenn noch keine instabilitàt vorhanden ist, hat der prozessor vermutlich schon bleibende schàden davongetragen
level1techs and a few others have mentioned laptop chips, it's just the overwhelming majority of failures are 13900k and 14900k. Every single type of 13 and 14 series rapter chip is failing to some degree, however.
bios, vsoc, vcore, vid, system agent, vddq etc. who the f*** knows about this as normal user? 2% you have no chance there are 100 other metrics with voltage
its funny how everybody talks about lowering this that. lower performance etc. if you buy V12 twinturbo. or in this case 700 dollar cpu. must perform at its max. not working at max.perf?? replace or give me my money back Shitnel. simply as that.
The "how to prevent issues" is more aimed at what to do if you experience issues now or how to prevent having issues in the future while there is no "fix" for it yet. i would guess that intel will replace any 13th and 14th gen high performance sku without any issues if you RMA
you wouldnt probably even notice it if it was at an early stage. but intel should exchange the affected cpus as soon as the correct microcode update is out
crashes every 5 hours strange freezes afte rall is updated and temps are under control. MY itel kinda died 4 days ago and no software will fix once u see it whiteen - oxidation. i just left my intel in the rain. to die away now im glad to get off this useless platform.
Possibly, but they also probably didnt know about the massive issues as they probably were not able to test chips for multiple years kind of difficult to judge
The end user should not have to consider any of this. Intel should offer free, preemptive redundancy upon request, at the original advertised specification, sending out the new CPU *before* evidence of failure has occurred, contingent on the end user never holding onto more than two CPUs at a time, or a full motherboard upgrade with a new technically superior CPU and board at Intel's option.
This is correct Intel will probably replace any of these cpus even if they dont show issues as they probbably have already taken damage, even if its not niticeable yet
I have bought the i9 13900KF to try it out. Its too hot for me even after undervolting and I dont really need that much cpu performance. I bought the i7 which I not build in yet, what is the best I can do? AMD is just to much to swap for me. I dont have that much money to buy new Motherboard, Ram and CPU
undervolting it might be the best thing to do and you can also limit the turbo power limits within your uefi. Keeping the cpu under a power consumption level of 200 Watts dhould be already a good step towards this. But it could alsready be permanently damaged if used at stock speeds, you never really know.
@@Bojcha76 well in theory yes, but going about it like that you could say any CPU in general is affected, since electromigration just happens. Although in a much smaller scale at weaker cpus, so you are right basically.
It is like 80-90% confirmed all 13th and 14th gen raptor lake or raptor lake refresh are affected, only the ones that are still alder lake should be safe like 14500 or 14400, it just seems the higher sku's like 13900k-14900k degrade more rapidly compared to 14900 and 13700k-14700k and the i5's.
@@limitless-hardware1866 Glückwunsch 🙂 Hoffe du bist irgendwo in Übersee, wo es sicherer ist! p.S. bitte guck dir nochmals den Intel-Skandal an, dort tut sich seitens Reddit mehr und mehr, auch das Notebook-Thema scheint nun "implementiert" zu sein.
@@instantdislikechannel5699 Griechenland, also nicht ganz übersee. ja da wird sich noch zeigen was kommt, allerdings sollte das bei Notebooks modelltechnisch unterschiedlich sein, da dort die differenzen in den Powerlimits deutlich größer sind. Das heißt es sind wohl nur high-End Modelle betroffen, dennoch, ungünstig natürlich :)
@@limitless-hardware1866 Balkan also, ja dann viel Erfolg, die dortige Mentalität kann manchmal sehr grob sein🙂 Zu den Notebooks: dachte ich mir ja auch, worauf die Beschwerden der Laptop-Nutzer nun beruhen, kann ich auch nicht eruieren, jedoch haben wir auch das Problem, daß ein "DAU" nun praktischerweise jeglichen Fehler auf Intel abtreten könnte 🤣
@@instantdislikechannel5699 das ist wohl wahr, aber entspannter und das wetter ist allemal besser 😅 ja gut das kann natürlich auch sein. wobei ich bei den notebooks gerade im high end sektor auch das problem nicht ausschließen würde, da Hitze das ganze ja auch beschleunigt und notebook cpus ja schon bei wenig last recht heiß werden, aber mal sehen wie sich das noch entwickelt! Ich wundere mich nur warum das bei Grafikkarten noch nicht zu einem größeren problem geworden ist. Teils sterben die high end modelle ja doch schon recht oft
No because they dont have as much power draw. Its stated that only cpus above 65 watts are affected so only k skus. And the more power they pull the worse it is. A 14900ks would be affected worst
@@limitless-hardware1866 In the new intel statement they did not deny that mobile cpus are in the clear. They are still testing, so it is possible that even mobile stock is bad.
One reccomendation, stay away from chinese brands. They fail often, and early. Some people will tet for a while and trust a brand but they change over time. Had luck in the past with XrayDisk for instance, but now i've got a dead drive from them with less then a year of use. Same for walram, they will usually stop writing, your pc will freeze or get really slow when trying to write, thy get stuck on a read only mode. On the walram i could just delete files and keep going, as long as it was under half capacity it was fine, but after a while of trying to orce erros to show RMA it's dead to the point pc won't get to bios. The xraydisk will just freeze if i try to write anything, deleting files will do nothing, so i just treat it as read only ever since. A lot of money went down the drain on those. Chinese satas are usually fine (tough usually very slow), but avoid chinese nvmes like the plague.
Idk but my mSATA ssd stopped working. At first I’m was thinking my laptop was the problem but not. Was my ssd( I know that cuz I tried to start without ssd and yea) So when I have the ssd in the laptop it’s not turning on, no matter what I’m doing to it.
remove the battery from your laptop and connect it to the charger. remove the SSD. let it sit for a bit without a SSD or battery but still connected to the charger. now insert the SSD and try booting to BIOS
Please help I have an ssd but don't have m.2 slot in my PC so I bought a m.2 rack and when I plug it into my PC the ssd won't show up in tired everything what should id do is it the racks fault or is my ssd dead helppp
Learn how to recover data from a dead SSD → bit.ly/3LpM4fT Windows Update or other unforeseen events such as crashes can lead to data loss or corruption in some instances. If windows for example shows "this drive needs to be formatted to be usable" then this is one situation where a data recovery software could help.
mine has a sandforce bug 200026BB how do i fix this, the os is a windows 11 on my asus raidr 240gb pci express with no partition on it = 33kb only, do i press the power button down on the motherboard itself or use the power supply to turn the system off at this point we would recommend disconnecting the power cable from the SSD for 30 seconds and repeating the process. = power cycle inside the bios
@@renaissance18 I think a drive with the sandforce bug wil not work, as this is kind of a hardware defect then. if you need the data off of it. a recovery software MIGHT help, but usually, has to go to a specialist.
@@limitless-hardware1866 Turn on the power and leave the power on for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, power down or pull the power cable. Wait 30 seconds, then restore power. Let the drive sit powered on for another 30 minutes. Power down again, then wait 30 seconds.
@@limitless-hardware1866 ok do i turn off the computer through the motherboard power button or use the power supply switch to turn off the pc for 30 seconds
what about a pci express ssd card, i have a asus 240gb raidr that got a sandforce bug 200026BB will this method work inside the bios or not = This gives the drive time to initialize and will resolve most booting issues. When we say power down we mean press the power button down to turn the system off at this point we would recommend disconnecting the power cable from the SSD for 30 seconds and repeating the process.
im not sure exactly what you mean by this, if its just needing time to initialize, you could disable fast boot if its active and delay the splash screen. on a few motherboards that can be done. though on many motherboards when you are in the bios and exit it with esc, the pc will not restart, but continue to boot. you could do the same with the boot menu, boot into that, wait until its initioalized i guess and then boot. that way you can "delay" the boot process if that is what you think works. never heard of that tho
@@limitless-hardware1866 i meant this error = Drive model is shown as SandForce{200026BB} and capacity of 33KB Cause This is caused by a known issue within the SandForce SF2000 series controller chip used on certain makes/models of SSD and NVMe drives which can occur after the system the drive is in has been in hibernation or sleep mode for a period of time. Resolution As this behavior is caused by a firmware issue within the SandForce SF2000 controller chip it is necessary to apply a firmware update containing a fix.
I'm seeing more and more RU-vidrs using these mic's in their hand ? Is there a genuine reason or is it just a new image/fad ? Legit question! Just curious!
Can you please say if i should play game on turbo mode or silent mode or performance mode my laptop has two gpu one is 4050 and another is 780 and also please say when should i update the drivers i did stop updating as i got scared ones updating drivers once a white screen appeared while updating 4050 after closing the white screen it says the update was complete and another time a black screen appeared during 780 update i had to turn off the laptop and then do the update again so i am also scared to do the new updates.
Not a fan of Nvidia .. long time ago i used nvidia and i had problems with the cards as long as i can remember.. i never ever use nvidia anymore in my life.. same with AMD CPU's .. they're cursed..... intel cpu and amd gpu only from MSI works perfect without issues
To resolve the issue it probably wouldnt need to be less powerful, as a 4090 can reach about 90 percent of its performance on 350w or depending on the game even 300w too!
The electromigration angle I've not come across before. With newer 30/40 series cards I'm a little skeptical - not heard much else about the cores dying straight out on these. If anything it's the PCBs getting warped and damaged solder balls/traces. On the CPU side I did think it was a bit much sending VIDs of 1400mV down a 10nm process on a 13900k when we did similar with the old Core 2 Quads on 65nm. But those seem to be holding out , as do Ryzens on 7nm and 14nm Intels. The newest Ryzens are designed for very high operating temps too. So I'm not sure if electromigration is going to be a massive problem for those who don't send 900W down their 4090s (I have seen a video here of someone doing exactly that , and the card dies pretty quicky 😂). I do however have a very relevant story of a 2080ti dying though recently almost exactly 2 years after I bought it second hand . Reason was that the memory controller basically cooked itself , with a part of the core near the edge being not cooled enough - but not near sensors which would have showed in hotspots. I got this second hand towards the end of the etherium mining boom so the previous owner would have possibly mined with it. The other thing I noticed about that is that the default fan curve was extremely conservative and had the hotspot running to 90+C (in hindsight I should have repasted it but it didn't seem too much higher than the core temp ). I did overclock and max the power budget out on this card as I needed the performance. But I imagine this card being hammered with little cooling when mined with -there wouldnt be a fan profile for max memory load and min core load.
Those cards can't get enough power - if I got one I'd be throwing 500W into it 😂 , which my case can't deal with so I got a 4080 Super instead which I've pushed 370W into.
