Bought a macbook air 256 gig version thinking it would be enough but its not and i am regretting a bit ....

Get yourself a Thunderbolt 4/USB 4 external SSD enclosure with a fast SSD of your choice (WD_Black SN850x, Samsung 990 pro or 980 pro) and you’ll have a lot more storage, as fast as your internal drive, for less than $200. You can even swap your SSD sticks. That same storage space bought directly on

My boyfriend wants M.2 for his PC for Christmas??? But idk anything about it so how can I figure it out without spoiling the surprise to him lol

I recently bought the WD_BLACK SN850X NVMe SSD 2 TB. On November 18, it was €150, but now it's a little more expensive (€177). The 4 TB version currently costs €300. In recent tests, it was consistently among the top performers, averaging out as one of the best NVMe SSDs. It's even better than the c

SSD just showed up now just need the 16th to get here quick.

Yeah I had read the SN7100 was one of the better ones for handhelds and laptops with optimization for low power consumption which figured was good for handhelds. Looked at the SN850 but sounded that was for desktop pcs and consoles. Also it was right within budget for a special program my work does

The 9600x comes with a free cooler right now, so if you're open to doing a white build you can get a much better overall build for about the same price - PCPartPicker Part List Type Item Price CPU AMD Ryzen 5 9600X 3.9 GHz 6-Core Processor $179.99 @ Newegg CPU Cooler Cooler Master Elite 84.2 CFM Liq

Which SSD?

I’d say go with the WD_Black. I have been using a WD_Black SN850X since I bought my PS5 Slim Christmas of 2024 & it’s been performing great. If you do go with WD_Black, do your self a favor & save some money & don’t purchase the SN850P. The SN850X & SN850P are literally identical & offer the same spee

PS5 SSD advice - is a heatsink really required?

Yes, you do need one. You don’t need thermal paste though. I got a WD SN850 and then a 20 quid heatsink. The heatsink came with a thermal adhesive pad that you just stick to the SDD and then stick the heatsink on top, requires zero expertise other than what you’d use to put on a plaster/band aid or

Help me complete my dream Pc

Hmm nếu bác muốn đi với con 9800X3D thì tôi nghĩ bác đập tản khí là đủ cân rồi. Phantom Spirit 120SE nó vẫn thừa sức. Tiền tiết kiệm được bác mang lên đập con 5070 còn đáng hơn là con AIO.

[Consulta] Está aprobado este Build? Se puede mejorar?

Quizás puedas ahorrar un poco en el SSD (el SN850 vuela, pero podés bajar a uno un toque más "lento" sin notar mucha diferencia) y con esa plata saltar a una 9060 XT. Y las memorias buscá que sean CL30, no 38. Con el cooler podés ahorrar también, con un ID-Cooling FROZN A410 estás bien.
