Hi all, I've recently purchased the Samsung 970 EVO plus as part of the components that I'm putting together to start a new build. After reading some reviews about these M.2 SSD came across the info where people are complaining about the drive to run at high temperatures. Should I get an...

Hi there. I currently use a b450-f gaming motherboard and was wondering what the best m.2 ssd i could get for around £100. Im hoping for a 1tb drive. Currently using a 480gb sata ssd but needing the extra storage so thinking of having the m.2 as my main drive. Also would i need a heatsink for...

Hello all, I am taking a break from looking for GPUs that don't exist and turning my attention to storage drives. Hopefully there's a deal to be had over the weekend. I want two drives - one as the boot drive and install drive for my CAD programs. The second can be for storage, CAD files and...

Hi there i currently have a PC and will be salvaging some parts from it until I have enough money to replace them. I was going to buy a console for cyberpunk but the chances of getting one are so slim so I'm just going to upgrade my pc instead. I bought a ryzen 3600 and have a power supply and...

Hi guys, As mentioned in the title, I think it's about time to upgrade my storage (which I installed in 2011) to the RAID setup I've always wanted, and I need some advice as I'm a bit out of my depth! I currently use an old Western Digital 1TB Caviar Black HDD (as seen in the hyperlink) for...

I'll be doing full system rebuild soon, although I will be keeping most of the drives (standard HDDs and SSDs) I currently have windows on a WD M.2 SATA, but I also picked up a Sabrent Rocket PCIe 4.0. Would it be worth having windows on the PCIe 4 nvme or leave it on the SATA nvme and save...
