It seems the mobo had UEFI mode and it is showing up once i changed it. but my windows install on it is not showing so might need to change from MBR to GPT

Hi I have a test bench which i was thinking of using for updating firmware of the hdd but it is not showing up on this motherboard. Is the mobo to old? it doesnt have UEFI only legacy bios but it has sata III: https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/Z97-PC-Mate/Specification The port and cables are working fine, tested with a 12tb drive. I have 4 of these x24 drives and tested 2 so far.

i have a bat file that kills explorer and opens it again. tried it 2 times already sadly.

my panel at the bottom didnt want to open when i pressed it so i restarted the explorer and now it looks like this All options there are greyed out and i cant click on anything there. It will start working if i reboot, but is there a way to get this one back without reboot?

Write cache was off !

Not sure why its saying pcie 1 when i get above pcie 1x4 speeds on read? o.O

CDM? tried 16gb with same results

haven't been doing much on it cant see how the cache would be full. and i mean it should be able to flush the cache in a couple of mins max since it has the crazy speed. i ran 16 mb test file and it still gives same write speeds

hm ye might be a RMA, god dammit its my C drive too have to find another 2tb drive in the meantime ugh...

yes config in sign. bios on mb is latest, ssd firmware updated newly 1 week ago or so im getting the full speed on Read so there should still be the same bandwidth for the write testing.

i have the corsair MP700 2TB version and i dont seem to have quite good Write speeds? am i doing something wrong? The drive has to have Gen 5 pcie speed since the read is OK. Temps never went above 55C during testing too. it is on the latest firmware too.

ye had to play a 8k video to see the spikes

i disabled the HW accel in firefox and now its working normally. seems the cpu is picking up the slack now

i see. well i do need it since im all full on outputs on my 4090 sadly so im using 1 monitor on it. but i guess i have to change it back to the main gpu for firefox.

Hi Im using firefox that is set to use the iGpu and when i try to play a 4K video on youtube the gpus Video Codec 0 spikes upp to 100% and the video is super laggy. Is the iGpu not able to do 4k?
