2 different interfaces and a few different technologies, one based off of SATA, SATA can only go up to let's say 600MBps, Read and Write (Up to, not sure where you got 25Thousand from), then you have M.2, which doesn't rely on a cable, has NVME, which connects the M.2 slot to the CPU, improving its over all speed and response time, then it is M.2 which allows for direct connection to the motherboard, allows for a much smaller foot print over a SATA 2.5" drive, and bringing that all together is faster, because of it all, up to 3,500MBps. Here I show you speed differences: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-aHVCmkm67q8.htmlsi=2qg7rJRWB72ib9Xr It's a laptop, but it's the same thing as a desktop, just smaller.
@@ThisBytesForYou I did it ( with your help )! Installed 2 SSD's, the new power supply, and new GPU. I was a bit nervous...things are a little different these days! Also installed 2 fans. I was able to set my new game to "ULTRA", and everything stayed so cool. Thank you Iggy!
@@c849243 AWESOME dude, congrats and thanks so much for letting me know I could help you, it means a ton to me, helps to start out a new day for sure. What game are you playing btw?
@@ThisBytesForYou I really wasn't sure about it, but have been AMAZED at all the aspects of HOGWARTS LEGACY. Its one of the finest games I've ever played. GREAT graphics, mysteries, puzzles...and of course battles. With the new GPU, I upgraded to the ULTRA setting, and all I can say is WOW. Thank you again, my friend, for all your help and great video lessons!!! 😃😃😃😃😃😃
awesome bud, I have been told byu many people that it is a great game, i just don't have time to play games anymore, kinda sad, does it have a built in benchmark? Always a pleasure my friend.
My wife uses her PC to play sims and filled up her 500g hard drive between the game and mods. I’m pretty sure she has to have her game and mods on the same drive right? If that’s the case then would the best approach be to install the ssd drive and install sims on the new drive instead of the old one? Then move all of her mods and added content to the same drive?
More than likely yes, most people never check to see where their games and apps go installed, they just install them. nothing wrong with her hahah, we all do it. Having games on a second drive is the best, but there is no perfect way to move them, I always recommend to uninstall them and reinstall them. There are ways to move them, that I dont recommend because they are sloppy and lead to a bad experience when you game.
Quick question...installing a larger PSU keeps things cooler, right? Or does it not make much difference? I'm thinking it makes thr computer cooler, because its not working as hard.
it can if you are pulling close to the max of the power supply and the efficiency as well. Also, cooling is a big thing, if your system runs cooler, you use less power, if your system runs hotter, it pulls more power, so you want to make sure you have adequate cooling. In case your cooling isn't the best, this may help: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-J5m5WBlPkfc.html
May i ask something sir? Here's the problem I do have an HDD installed on my pc and I bought a new SSD just now How can I install WINDOWS 10 OS on my SSD if the WIN 10 os was installed on my HDD ?
You have a ton of options, you can clone it: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-4BtdMcqwaFg.html Or you can do a fresh install: This is how to create the drive: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-C759I7DBXd8.html and this is how to install it: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-sNtlz1EoWBM.html but I recommend you install Windows 11

Hey, I've got an issue but before I tell you, man, I'm really impressed by how you actually answer all comments! Very impressed! So my issue is that right after I install Windows 10 on my M.2 SSD (not 11) I don't get a Windows Boot Manager. I think it's really strange, but I'm guessing there might be a setting in the BIOS that is causing a problem. Do you have any advice?
Always a pleasure my friend, without you, without my fans, and subscribers I am nothing, so I find it horrible to channels that don't reply, you are literally who we are recording for. As for the M.2, are you set to UEFI or legacy in the BIOS and depending on the board, you need to have CSM disabled or set to Auto. Also, make sure you update your BIOS, then try again
@@ThisBytesForYou I'm using the ROG Z390-F. I couldn't find a UEFI setting outside of the CSM options, so I've tried with both CSM disabled and CSM enabled but with all options set to UEFI only. I updated the BIOS and the SATA driver but it didn't solve the problem. Is there a UEFI setting that I am missing?
@@swedi3571 So that I can help, please list the manufacturer and exact model number of the following components: 1. Motherboard - manufacturer and exact model number 2.

@@swedi3571 OK, in the Boot Menu in your BIOS, set CSM to Enabled, (you may need it for this BIOS), the under Boot Control, for "Boot from Storage Devices" set UEFI First, from "Boot from PCI-E/PCI Expansion DEvices" to UEFI driver first". UNder "Advanced Menu" and PCH Storage configuration, set SATA connection to "AHCI", under ":Onboard Device Configuraiton" set M.2_1 to " PCIE and try it again, this is a x3 M.2 drive, it should work in any slot, but maybe try a different slot as well. and disable Fast Boot.

Hello. Thanks so much for your vid. I have an issue, I only have 1 x M.2 slot. I purchased a larger capacity M.2 SSD to replace my original. What should I do? Remove old one and then just replace new one and install windows from scratch?

It means a ton to me and I am so very happy I could help you.

Thanks so much for the reply. Greatly appreciated. I think I'll go for a fresh Windows 10 installation on the new M.2. I'll take a look through your videos. Thanks again!
Remember, you can use your Windows 10 key for 11, 11 is awesome, I have been using it since day 1 and it keeps getting better, you are so very welcome my friend and I am so very happy I could help you.

I have a 240 ssd, and it's full with my OS, of course. If I take that out and buy an m.2. will I have issues with my os if I install it on that? That 240 ssd was a waste. It's way too small of storage.
well, you need to install windows on that new M.2 SSD, it wont come with it, this video shows you how to install but, but you can check this video on how to create the install media: "How to create a Windows 11 install media: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ayp8TksEtoY.html" but if you want to clone your drive, which I don't recommend, you can follow this video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-e8omB4pFLlA.html Yeah, many people bought 240's and thought it would be good, the bare minimum I would use is a 500Gig, but I prefer a 1TB for sure.

with a regular SSD, you shouldn't have that issue, unless maybe you are using RST, or maybe you made the windows 11 thumb drive incorrectly, check out this video to see if it helps, if not, let me know and we can work through other things: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ayp8TksEtoY.html
I just rebuilt the USB installation and tried the install again and the the install does not recognize the hard drive, fyi, this is an HP laptop that had windows 11 upgraded from 10 but started having issues I could not fix so I bought a new WD SA510 to install windows 11 on but the drive is still not recognized, could it be a bios issue?@@ThisBytesForYou
i put the original drive back and tried to do a complete install on it with the same result, the drive is recognized in the bios but not in windows install, also diskpart does not recognize either drive
So, did you install windows, then if you selected your drive after you installed it, you didn't select the windows boot manager. If you don't that, you don't have uefi enabled.

I just got a second M.2 drive…installed it and got it to show up in Disk Management…the next day I turn on my PC and it is not showing anymore!…what do I do??? My motherboard is the ROG Strix B550-F Gaming Wi-Fi…the main M.2 drive is the WD SN850 1Tb in the top slot…the new drive is the WD SN850X 2Tb in the bottom slot…I’m running Windows 11 all drivers and Bios are up to date…please help!
What cpu do you have? The problem is the board along with most CPU's have 20 PCIE lanes, 16 for your GPU and 4 for one of the 2 M.2 drives, all 20 taken up. If in your BIOS, you have the Gen4 slot taking up 16 lanes, it can't split it into 8, see if you can set your PCIEx16_1 Mode into Gen3, see if that helps or setting your PCIE16_2 Bandwidth Bifuraction Configuration to PCIe RAID mode but this is dependent on your CPU.
so you should be good, make sure you update to the latest BIOS version make sure the m.2 lanes are x4 and also make sure the m.2 slot is properly seated @@xantech42
go to a friend or families house and get them, put them on a thumb drive, maybe even from your phone attach a usb cable to your PC, thats they only way this will work.
