His second answer
"it isn't in disc manager either. It is in device manager"
I Did suggest assign a letter in diskpart
though again only works if it shows up
First I would probably
Put some feet or wheels on it
Looks like terrible ground clearance
Could do as mickyflinn said
Or rear intake
Bottom intake
Side exhaust
Though rear intake I would flip the cooler fans
To be honest it's pretty easy to test different configuration
Since only 5 fans in...
Think apply to the bios
In settings there's an option to apply/not apply
I have mine not apply
So I can switch profiles if I want the all core overclock
Or if I want to be in a lower power mode
If just Web browsing etc
Whereas apply to bios might involve a restart
Is it finding any files at all?
Bit rot wouldn't stop it working
Would be the data that would be corrupted or unreadable
was the ssd shoved away somewhere and left
with no power for years?
And if you could recover it I assume you would
Be able to open it?
No idea but guessing it's passworded...
You can recover stuff from formatted drives
Especially if nothing has been written on them afterwards
Even if stuff has been written
Have done it even after I installed windows
It doesn't mean it has overwritten what you want to recover
With a ssd more of a worry would be
If its not been...
Could try assigning a drive letter
If it shows up in diskpart
Diskpart
List vol
Select vol 9 (or whichever number its shown as)
Assign letter=x (or whatever letter you prefer)
Now that's definitely a great sponsor to have
The others aren't bad
But someone who can make you quality custom stuff
That's a real feather in your cap
Congratulations yet again mate
Best way to sort it before selling
Either as quartz said
Keep the ssd and put a new one in
Or do a secure erase before reinstalling windows
Either with ssd manufacturers tool
Though in the past I used corsair toolbox
And checked if stuff was recoverable and it was
So I always double check now...
Yeah I wouldn't use alcohol on acrylic
It might depend what strength the alcohol is
And how thick the acrylic is
But probably not a good idea even if doesn't go brittle
It may go cloudy
I use plastic polish for acrylic if just a damp cloth doesn't work
Not sure what's in the plastic polish...
Yeah monitors can have drivers
They work out of the box Without them
as they have to to be able to
Get windows installed etc
Not sure what extra functionality the driver adds
But I always go look see if there's a driver
On the support page anyway
Well fingers crossed for you
I would still be...
Personally I found anything under 27 (and at least 1440p)
The balance between size and sharpness wasn't there
When splitting the screen into 2 or 4 windows
For me anyway 27 at 1440p gives a decent balance
2 Web browsers etc side by side works
4 just about works though the windows are on the...
If its a known common fault
Personally I would just send it back
I am all for fixing/making stuff work
But not if its a known manufacturing defect
You may get it working
Then it may decide not to continue working
Just after warranty expired
Not worth the risk for me anyway
You won't actually have more screen space
24 is 24 regardless of resolution
1440p will actually make things appear slightly smaller
Though will be a lot sharper image than 1080p
Should say just tested this on 27 at 1080p and 1440p
But I did 4 equal windows/rectangles
I don't know what...
The bottom of the cold plate/block
Ie the part that touches the die
May well be copper that's unplated
Other parts especially if acrylic/see through block
Usually nickel plated
Probably because nickel plating stays mostly nice and shiny
Copper tends to tarnish/oxidise/whatever the correct term...
Yeah definitely a mild abrasive
Probably ammonia and hydrocarbons/petroleum jelly
In there too along with whatever the abrasive material used is
OK to use on more expensive metals
Yeah that's possible
But what are they defining metals as ?
Compared to something that's electroplated
I would...
I don't seem to see much blooming on mine
Mini led ips 5 hundred and something zones forgot exactly
Though I guess I would need something similar
To the ops picture with a black background
And a ot of white text
Or could just be my eyes are shot lol
And according to someone who was selling a...
Not sure I would use brasso (or other abrasive/containing chemicals polish)
Did they buy out duraglit at some point?
Bit random but I remember duraglit from donkeys years ago
Anyway not sure I would use them on
Electroplated nickel over copper
It's probably a very thin nickel coating on there
You're sort of correct
Windows decides 32gb is max size
But there's various methods to do it larger
So it's not technically limited to 32gb
It's just a windows imposed limit not an its not possible limit
Windows in its wisdom
Formats fat32 as a 32gb maximum
It's possible to format it manually to a much higher size
Apparently Microsoft don't because its
An inefficient file system for larger sizes
