  1. Hello! I've been googling for hours and I can't find the solution. I set up my protonmail with ProtonMail Bridge with the Thunderbird windows application. Whenever I try to send an attachment from my protonmail account from the Thunderbird mail app, it gives me this error: I can send mail from the account in the thunderbird program without any attachments just fine. I also have the enigmail encryption extension added to the program, when I encrypt my messages using a different email account using Thunderbird, it works just fine. Any help? Cheers
  2. Hi all, I currently have a USB dongle using as a Bluetooth enabler for my PC to connect my Bose QC35 IIs but the sound is delayed noticeably by a second. I have a spare PCE-AC68 wifi card however it’s WiFi only. Is there any way to use this to improve my Bluetooth signal or use it as a Bluetooth receiver? On my older PC I didn’t have the lag of sound using the same USB dongle so it’s a bit weird, I’ve tried plugging it into USB 3.0 ports and it has the whole sound stuttering problem.
  3. Hey all, Thought I'd ask here instead of trying it myself first before I destroy my new computer. As per the title, is it possible? Since I have a space 980 lying around without another system to use it on, should I just put it in?
  4. Nice! That'll give me more breathing room. I'll most likely plan to get another M.2 soley for games, use my current M.2 for my OS and the aforementioned SSD into a single game drive. Thanks again! Would still love to hear from other peep's experiences
  5. I've been concerned about this for awhile. Basically I have X amount of space left: Files are compressed using the windows folder option and my SSD is at 91% health with 41944GB total host writes out of apparently 96TB total (reference here). Should I be worried about jumping the gun and getting a new SSD for my OS sooner? Or no? Thoughts? Tips?
  6. I’m considering I’m investing in Optane. However I’m not sure if the m.2 optane version will fit on my Z390-F motherboard. I’ve tried to look up compatibility but can’t get a clear answer if it will fit in my M.2 slot because it looks like a B/M key which I think my board only supports M key?
  7. So much juicy help ;w; I love it. I still plan to buy an M.2 for my OS this christmas anyways and just use this SSD for a game or two. Currently I have 3 backups: One done manually dragging files One using Windows File History and lastly Google Drive Any tips on stuff I've left out?
  8. So I'm looking at this: https://www.kingston.com/datasheets/svp200s3_us.pdf Am I reading it correctly when it says TBW is 96TB? Does that mean I can only write up to 96TB of data until it ceases all function? Using Crystal Mark Info, this is the current health of my SSD: Anything notable I should be aware of?
  9. Good idea, I'll do that right now actually, thanks!
  10. I'm worried because of how long it's been that I've owned the SSD for that's all, and what I've heard and read that 5 years is a typical life span (correct me if I've been misinformed).
  11. Thanks for the recommendation, this is such a cute program! How accurate is this software? Do you know?
  12. Hi all! My Kingston 120GB SSD is about 5 - 6 years old and has only been used for the OS. I've done my best to move as much as possible over to other drives and to avoid anything being installed on the C drive (pictured below) Just wanted to know roughly how long my SSD have left to live only being used for the OS (I do plan on purchasing a new M.2 to run my OS on instead.).
  13. I’m super curious why ASUS made it in the first place, let alone 3 iterations if it can cause problems like this Either that or just curious how to make it work.
  14. Recently got a shiny new computer and decided to install all the software from the Armoury Crate, one of which is "RAMCache III". New software, new tech so I decided to try it out to which I think I have a basic understanding that it uses more hard drives on your system as VRAM space? (If not let me know) so I was like "nice, my new computer can handle it, let's leave it". The problem So the problem started every time I plugged in my external hard drive which would cause Windows File Explorer to suddenly not respond for a few seconds, lag, and then continue to work. In some cases it would cause my keyboard, microphone, mouse and my wireless headset receiver to disconnect once I had that file explorer crash, it would happen about 50% of the time when reconnecting the external hard drive. But then, when it was looking good, I couldn't use my drive, it started to give me the whole "i/o device error" constantly. I plugged in my USB Thumb drive and it worked fine, tried another USB Thumb drive and worked fine, tried my 2nd external hard drive and still had the same error. So I thought it was my external hard drive, formatted it (both quick and full formats) and it looked okay, THEN THE ERROR RETURNED. I tried a number of write ups, Youtube videos to try to fix the i/o error, going into the BIOS to enable XHCI hand off, I even went as far as lowering my RAM speed - No Change. The defining solution I gave up, then it hit me, I was mindlessly defeated looking at my programs running in the background, looked at RAMCache III and re-realised it was using my hard drives and noticed something new, it was showing my USB drives too, so I uninstalled it fast, plugged in my drive and had no issues. Did a couple more tests and still no issues after uninstalling it. Now I don't completely understand what's going on with that program to cause aforementioned issues, so I'm keen to learn and attempt to use it again without possibly killing my new computer because honestly, I feel like I'm missing out on a cool piece of software, no big loss though.
