    No. PCIe is 12V only while SATA is 12V, 5V, and 3.3V with SATA SSDs using 5V.
     
    However you can buy additional SATA cables to plug in to the available 6 pin Peripheral/SATA sockets on the power supply. Corsair sells compatible cables with 4 SATA connectors on each cable.

    Thank you for responding. 
     
    I contacted ASUS and they said it's because the motherboard will not support windows 10. I reverted back to my Windows 8 Installation so I don't have those files sorry. 
     
    Thank you though.

    andy_composer got a reaction from slasher0161 in 256GB of RAM Anyone?   
    I do need that much RAM. I use a program called Cubase 7. When I load the Orchestral VST Templates into Cubase 7 to create music it adds to the RAM. 
     
    Library one - Hollywood Strings is 320GB Samples
    Library two - Hollywood Brass is 155GB Samples
    Library three - Hollywood Woodwinds is 150GB Samples
    Library four - True Strike Percussion Etc... Etc....
     
    When doing the music I write i do need that much RAM because I use lots and lots of instruments. 
     
     
    Windows Website says Windows 8 PRO is 512GB RAM Maximum, i posted on here because ive read that windows has problems with that much ram :\ and i got scared. 
     
    PCI Express SSD is a good option, but id need a OCZ Revodrive of 1TB or more. The RAM Disks would be faster and considerably cheaper. 
     
     
    I write soundtrack/classical/orchestral style music. The Libraries I use are very CPU/RAM Intensive. 
     
    Here is some of my music with Video.

    Cheers. Greatful for the listen :). 
     
    Thankyou very much for listening and your comments :). 
     
    Thank you for listening :). Yes I know where your coming from, but In a full 30 minutes orchestral score I could find myself using most of the articulations, this is advantageous for continuity issues. Its audio plugins aswell that takes up the RAM (for mixing) aswell as the libraries. 
     
    Yes for financial reasons I will be working my way up the RAM, going up in 64GB Kits. i may find 64GB is enough or 128GB, but the more I have I can take advantage of RAM Disks. Thankyou for listening to my music :). 
     
    Logic Pro is the worst Audio workstation i've ever seen or used. Pro Tools is absolutely fantastic for recording audio, yet its MIDI editing is poor. Cubase 7 is the best for what I do, its unrivaled in my opinion. 
     
    Its an older AMD Quad core system with only 8GB of RAM. I can freeze the audio of each instrument to save RAM, but this limits quality and workflow dramatically. 
     
    Be careful with OCZ Revodrives, i've heard bad things about them.
