Yeah, I went into the bios and just clicked restore defaults (Never changed anything myself so idk what was wrong O_O), it booted up and the drive shows up now so strange. Must have been a setting that stopped it from showing up

On the computer it's not showing up on or the one it showed up in disk management on? This photo is the one that doesn't show it in disk management

I plugged it into another system and crystaldiskinfo showed no bad sectors

I have this system that shows the harddrive in the bios, but doesn't show in disk management in windows. So I am unable to make a partition for it... Motherboard is an MSI H61M-P31/M8 and the harddrive is a WD BLUE 500GB I also tried different sata ports and same thing still Thanks

I downloaded "AOMEI Partition Assistant" and that fixed this issue - both 500GB and a 2TB harddrive show up in windows now.

I found that pesky secure boot setting, turned it off - didn't help anything

So 2 drives I have plugged show up in the bios fine but Windows won't show them in this PC or disk management or in the system devices

The one I got is this one. I'll go check what chipset is used now. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000075147477.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.402c4c4ddGj6DA It does seem to be that is happening, annoyingly

I have this system was being upgraded which original specs had an E3 1240 and a H61 motherboard. It originally was 120GB Kingston SATA SSD and 500GB WD Blue Harddrive. The person it's for got given a WD Black SN750 500GB NVMe SSD but obviously it wasn't going to work with the original setup. I got a Chinese X79 motherboard which works with the drive. I cloned the old SSD to the drive, but after this it now doesn't read anything through the SATA ports. It will read any drive through USB but not SATA and I don't get why. I have also tried with a clean install of Windows on the WD drive and it still won't read anything that is plugged into the SATA. This is in the disk management also and not just My Computer. I took the NVME out and plugged the sata SSD with windows on and it does recognise through this same X79 motherboard so the fault isn't there. Any ideas why it isn't working? Thanks

Oh ? Well, I bought it from a bundle seller because it cost the same either way and the bundle seller never specified this on his own listing. I'll probably just sell this drive and upgrade to an nvme one honestly

This is the board that I have if it makes anything easier. So no way to make the integrated slot work with my M.2 Drive? https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32941784993.html

I got one of those X79 bundles (E5 2689, 16gb quad channel and X79 PlexHD motherboard) which has an NVME X4 slot. I plugged my M.2 Drevo SSD into it and it isn't being recognised. Some research into it says it's becaause my M.2 drive is SATA and not PCIE. Is there any possible way for me to make the motherboard work with this slot, or do I need to get an adaptor? Thanks

They have tried all of that drivers countless of times

Only just realised what I typo'd x)

Temps are fine

Hello I have a friend whose system always stutters in games (they play FFXIV and League of Legends). They never seem to hit over 120fps at all and has stutters at moments. the specs I know are: i7 6850K @ 3.6Ghz 32GB RAM Gigabyte GTX 1080ti 1000W 80+ Platinum PSU They run 3 BenQ monitors, 1 being a 144hz one... but I don't see that being an issue as I run similar myself with a R5 1600 + 1080ti with 4 monitors (1 120hz, 1 ultrawide) with no issue. Thanks for any help!

Hello, I am building my friend a streaming PC. He mainly wants to stream CS:GO and Battlefield 4. I was looking around online and some benchmarks say the R9 390 plays CS:GO better? Is there much of a different? Also power consumption isn't an issue to him so it's just about raw performance. Also I have both cards here so just wondering what others opinion would be for it Thanks! Full specs: E3-1240 Asus P8H61M-LX Rev. 2 2x8GB Crucial 1600Mhz RAM Drevo 120GB SSD 1TB Toshiba 7200rpm HDD EVGA 500W 80 PLUS

Ahh, thought the 20 pin was only for the ancient IDE days before SATA was introduced lol Is there any way I can make the +4 or am I out of luck with this one?

I bought a PC of one of my friends as we both build and sell them. I recently bought a Medion PC which had a first gen i3, 4GB RAM, 500GB and a GT something. It has this FSP400-60EMDN that came with it, the motherboard connector only has 20 pins? But the PSU also has a 6 pin PCIE and sata connectors which is what confuses me? Is this common with Medion PCs or? O_O

That was the reason I was considering it aha, but thank you

Currently building 2 PC's out of each other (Got a FX4300, 970 mobo, GTX 960, 8GB RAM and CX600 for £100 lol) PC 1 (my old one): Intel Xeon E3 1231-V3 + Alpine 11 PRO AsRock B85M Pro3 2x4GB DDR3 generic green RAM MSI GTX 960 2GB 1TB Seagate Barracuda 5Ghz/2.4Ghz internal wifi card Corsair CX600 AVP X6 case with red LED fans I was thinking £400 but unsure honestly... Also would an SSD boost the value by much more? PC 2 (Gumtree find): AMD FX4300 + stock cooler ASUS 970 PRO GAMING/AURA 2x4GB DDR3 generic green RAM ASUS GTX 750 2GB 1TB Hitachi 7200rpm HDD 5Ghz/2.4Ghz internal wifi card Delta DPS-300-AB-39 C 80+Bronze I think some Zalman case with red LED fans I was thinking £200? Thanks in advance!

I'm in the UK myself so Europe market

So I am putting parts I have laying round together to sell it off to get space in my room again. The stuff I am planning to put together is: i3 2100 An Intel branded motherboard 1x Patriot 4GB DDR3 1333Mhz RAM GTX 750 1GB Some Zoostorm case FSP300-60GHN 80PLUS PSU.
