Getting an NVMe M 2 SSD Drive Working on my PC

- Опубликовано: 18 сен 2024
- I got some computer parts from my brother Steve and built myself a computer but one of the drives isn't working right.
Check this out. I'm going to see if I can activate an NVME M.2 SSD drive on my new PC. It sounds pretty easy, let's see if it is!!
I built this PC around an ASRock z590 motherboard and Intel i9 10900FR 10th Gen processor my brother Steve gave me. I needed more parts so I went on Amazon and ordered the ones I needed. Here are the Amazon affiliate links for those parts if you're interested:

Steve for the win!
My problem was not enough Ram. I had over a dozen Ewes but definitely not enough Ram, so I ended up with no lambs 😂
How's she goin'? That's why Ram is important eh! LOL Take care!!
I built a few computers years ago but nothing like what you have. Now I only remember enough about them to get myself in trouble. I hope everyone is doing well. I am always praying for you guys. I'll see you on the next one.
How's she goin'? Nannie and I sure do appreciate all your prayers Ronnie!! God bless you!! Building the computer was a fun project and not all that difficult really!! Thanks again for all your support and take 'er easy!!
you are way ahead of me when it comes to computers.
How's shew goin'? This was a fun project Vernon and you know with all the videos on RUclips about building PC's it's not that hard to do. Thanks for the comments. Have a great weekend!!
As a recently joined member of the Grandpa club, I know a Grampie project is ANY project that needs done. Dog sitting so the grandkids and their parents can get a weekend up north, fixing a pool pump cord the dogs chewed up, replacing the brakes on the daughters car so the kidos are safe, buying kid toys at auction instead of lawnmowers, buying a new computer for school so grandkids mom can go back to college and get a better paying job, reinforcing fences so the dogs can’t escape, etc. I glory in doing these jobs.
Staying busy works for me too.
How's she goin'? Congrats Tom on joining the 'Grandpa Club' It's a great club and has lots of perks, but some of the downside is like you say, your to do list suddenly get filled with projects you never thought you would ever have to tackle! LOL But us Grampas are resourceful old farts eh!! Take 'er easy!!
Hey Dean, busy hands are happy hands right!!
@@GrampiesWorkshop I got a 2 for 1 deal, as my daughter is engaged to a young man who has a five year old and a two year old. So my wife & I went from zero to two without any twinning.
@@GrampiesWorkshop We can teach everyting they will ever need to know eh !
I see lots of good folk here to help you along if need be. You rock old friend. Seeing you soon will sure make me a happy fella !
How's she goin'? Thanks Dean. And yes sir there sure is lots of support here on RUclips. Don't worry, next time there won't be any computers or Latin or Greek in the mix!! LOL Take 'er easy!!
You ever smart Mike. I would never venture in one of those computer. I’m surprised and now I’m looking up at you….CHEERS
How's she goin'? Yes sir Gator I am a computer geek. I can even spell 'IBM'!! LOL Thanks for the comment. Take 'er easy!!
Built one years ago...when things were mighty simpler...think it was around 1988!! lol Looking at getting a new laptop with an SSD of at least 1 TB, preferably 2 TB. Didn't realize the difference in the price! Yikes! Pretty psychedelic there, Mike! Always nice when you turn it own and it all works as it is suppose to! Excellent!!
How's she goin'? I have to say I was pretty happy everything worked, well except for the SSB that I changed the location. But I sure was taken with all the pretty lights!! LOL I was going to go with one 1 TB drive, but I wanted to try and keep the operating system and other program for the basic operation of the PC on one drive and another separate one for programs and data files that I would be using regularly, like video editing and data bases and things like that. Say hi to Otis and take 'er easy!!
Good on you and it’s great to have a brother named Steve! Between the two of you….you could run the filing department at Government…who are not doing a good job with private information…we keep hearing of files being compromised!
How's she goin'? I wish I knew 1/3 of what Steve has forgotten about computers. I appreciate you watching and commenting. Have a great week!!
I stopped building computers in the 90's.
Ryan is a game programmer and has a nice tower that he setup to handle graphics.
I'm still working with my Dell Laptop. I'm on my 4 one in the last 20 years. Lots of miles on them.
How's she goin'? Computers are getting to be more and more an important part of our lives so knowing some basic things about them and how they work is good info to have on your back pocket!! Take 'er easy!!
Great job, Mike! My father learned about computers in the 1940's and told me when I was a kid to learn all I could about computers, but it never interested me. But, I sure would like to build a computer like yours. It sure is cool!!
How's she goin'? Rick computers are getting as common place as televisions these days. Building one is not that difficult. There are lots of great videos on how to do it. It was a fun project and the best part is, it all worked, well except for this SSD drive!! LOL Take 'er easy!!

Hello Grampie. As far as I would be able to get is taking the cover off the cover lol. It's good to know how to repair and upgrade the computer. Hats off to you my friend 🔧👍
How's she goin'? Well Artie computers are getting as abundant as lawn mowers nowadays so knowing a little about them is not a bad thing. This was a fun project and the good news is it all worked !! LOL And ya gotta like the lights too eh!! LOL Take 'er easy!!
Mike, I had something similar happen to me. I run old industrial laptops. On one of my old laptops the old analog hard drive was going out. So, I replaced it with an upgraded digital one. After replacing it my laptop would work good except for it kept over heating and shutting down. I looked up on RUclips an answer to my problem i found it. It was a very simple fix.. My laptop was set to maximum power input "which is adjustable in windows 7". I watched a RUclips video which showed me how to turn it down to 90 percent from 100 percent. Which i have done now it is working great without any problems.
How's she goin'? Right on Vicky!! That's the thing about computers, they seem complicated but there is so much helpful info on RUclips. For example most any problem has been experienced and a video made of it's solution. I'm glad you took on the challenge of digging into the laptop and resolving this issue. Many old computers are tossed every day when really they are all still great machines, all they need is some upgrades and some reconfiguring. Thanks a lot for watching and commenting. Take 'er easy!!
Never a dull moment with Mike lol, super interesting! You never know when you tune in here what you’ll be fixing next, this is great. 👍
How's she goin'? Ha Ha Ha! I suppose there is a lot of truth in that eh!! But with us depending more and more on computers these days, I think it's a good idea to be able to fix them, at least a little bit!! Thanks for watching. Have a great weekend!!
Man after my own heart! I love digging into computers myself but none of mine have lights, liquid cooling, or racing stripes like yours. The dedicated port is interesting. Windows 11 specific, who would have thought? I find computers that are cast offs and see what I can make them do. Mostly just changing RAM,hard drives, busted keyboards on laptops, etc. Your brother is a good guy to know and his knowledge is certainly helpful. Take care Mike, hello to Nanny and a pat for the squirrels ❤
How's she goin'? Computers are neat. I like to find out what's in there too. I built this one and it was pretty easy really. And ya gotta like the lights. Just an interesting fact for ya, these flashing LED lights are designed to keep squirrels away !!! And it works great!! I hope you and Susan have a great weekend. Take 'er easy!!
@@GrampiesWorkshop Newsflash: The lights actually bring squirrels right into the house👍👍👍👍
@@EverydayProjects Are you off your meds again!!!
@@GrampiesWorkshop 👹👍👽💥🌞🌡🥶🎭😵💫🤪👍
Nice work Mike, your not afraid to tackle any project
How's she goin'? Building a PC is not as difficult as it may look or sound!! LOL It was an interesting project and the best part is lights!!! Did you see the lights!! They're awesome!! LOL Take 'er easy!!
Very nice great video! I don't know nothing about computer's! We are always praying for you and Nannie 🙏🙏🙏
How's she goin'? Thanks again for all your prayers for Nannie Mike. She is really starting to make some good improvements. Now if we can get some weight and muscle back on her we'll be golden!! I enjoy discovering what's in a computer box and then, with help from my brother, I have learned enough to put this PC together and the best part is, it worked!! LOL Take 'er easy!!
Good work Mike! I’ve always been interested in building a PC but opted to buy one every time. Nice to have a brother that is so knowledgeable with building PCs. Cheers
How's she goin'? So true Ed! Maybe because my brother Steve was just a call away, that's what gave me the confidence to go for this build,. But really there are lots of videos on RUclips that show all the ins and outs of building a PC and they are pretty well plug and play. You should give it a try!! Take care and thanks for the comment.
Good evening Mike. Great job on explaining and getting your ssd functioning. This was a fun video for me. I understood every word you said. I was a computer systems analyst and programmer for 35 years. I designed and built many systems and wrote a lot of software programs during that time. Have a good one!
How's she goin'? Thanks Paul!! I have been messing with PC's for a while but nothing real serious. My brother gave me these parts and so I thought I'd try to build a PC. It wasn't that difficult really. Everything is so well engineered, other than compatibly issues, it's pretty straight forward! Thanks for your thoughts on this and I'm glad yo liked the video. Take 'er easy!!
@@GrampiesWorkshopPretty much everything is plug and play nowadays and that has simplified things considerably. Every once in awhile you'll come across something incompatible just like the equipment you own and maintain. It was great that you took on the challenge, and you were rewarded.
We have not built a new PC for many years. Great job getting the drive sorted
How's she goin'? With PC's becoming so common place in our homes and lives, it's nice to know a little about how they work eh!! Thanks for watching Joseph. Take 'er easy!!
Good afternoon Mike
How's she goin'? You're looking good today Gary!! Take care!!
Good afternoon Mike, wow! Very impressive! I agree with Luc and some others.. you should be getting calls/ getting job offers for tech support. Well done, great job explaining 👏, Have a great weekend, stay dry 👋😎👍☔️
How's she goin'? Tech support would good on my resume eh!! LOL We're getting some rain today but nothing to serious just yet. I hope you guys make out OK. Take 'er easy!!
I think you might be getting calls to offer you a job offers for a tech support Mike, well done explaining 👍🏻. You’re all set 👍🏻. Have a great weekend Mike and Nannie 👍🏻🙋🏼♂️🙂🇨🇦🍻
Salut Luc!! Ha Ha Ha! I'm too old to go back to work and I don't think I would make it as Tech Support!! LOL This was a fun project though and surprisingly enough, not that difficult a project to build. Thanks for tuning in. I hope you and Kathleen enjoy the weekend and that the rain doesn't do any damage! A la prochaine!!
@@GrampiesWorkshop The rain has finally stopped and no damage… that I can see, we’ll go around tomorrow 👍🏻🙋🏼♂️🙂
Well Mike you done a video that is so over my head . I understood the lights coming on . Great video 👍🏻
How's she goin'? Thanks Del!! I have to say, I like the lights best of all too! LOL Take 'er easy!!
That was a smart upgrade. My computer is getting very old and I am going to have to make some decisions soon. Storage is a big thing when you are making videos. Thanks Mike. Stevo
How's she goin'? Yes Stevo videos use a lot of storage. I have 2 external 1TB hard drives for my videos. You know building a PC is not that hard to do. They are pretty well plug and play. You should try to build one!! (And video it) Thanks for commenting. Have a great week!
@@GrampiesWorkshop I will look into it. Will probably be cheaper as well. Thanks Mike.
@@stevoj8959 Plus you can configure teh system to what you want. That's what attracted me.
Great video Mike. Didn’t understand a thing you said about the computer. 🤭🤭
Have a great weekend Nannie and you. 👍🏻👍🏻👋👋. Doesn’t sound like we are getting too much bad weather.
How's she goin'? Oops, sorry Noel! I have been messing with computers for a while now and with some help from my brother, I was able to get this one built and it works pretty good. Oh yeah, and ya gotta like the lights too eh! LOL Take 'er easy!!
👍🏻👍🏻👋👋
Hi Mike 👋, great video, and a job well done, am not quite sure about them sort of repairs 👍
How's she goin'? Thanks Nev. You know computers are like carburetors. I was scared to death of them at first but once you dig into them, they are pretty straight forward!! Thanks for watching. Have a great weekend!!
Good job buddy very smart thanks for sharing have a great weekend
How's she goin'? Thanks Tom. And for the record, you don't have to be smart to build a PC. It's pretty well plug and play. There are some issues with compatibility here and there, but pretty straight forward really! Thanks for watching. Take 'er easy!
Good video although most of it I don't understand. Just using a new computeor is c80hallenge enough to me.certainly wouldn't tackle the inside workings of a computer.
The insides are a lot like the outside only different!! LOL Love ya!!
Hey Nannie J. I hope you are still getting better and better all the days long. I hope to seeyou soon tending your raised beds for everything that pleases you two. Luv ya a bunch my friend !
My number two son built me a computer, and that the extent of my knowledge of computers :-)
How's she goin'? Buying an already made PC is a common thing, but building your own is becoming more and more common too. They are pretty simple to put together, but then there is compatibility issues that can rear their ugly heads!! Take care!!
Great video Mike
How's she goin'? Thanks Bob! Take 'er easy!!
Like 38 here Mike. How’s She Going for you? You built a Computer and that’s good….fix the memory card!
How's she goin' Thanks for the visit Garry!! The computer is still working!! Miracles never cease!! LOL Take 'er easy!!
You're a smarter guy than I am, Mike. I'm more of a buy a new laptop every five years kinda guy lol
How's she goin'? I enjoy digging to computers to see what makes them tick and this time I thought I would build one and see how that went. It was a fun project!! Take 'er easy!!
Oh my, Mike. These things are not my strongest suit. My laptop presents plenty of grief. Wow bud, You're speaking Latin or Greek in my case. When these laptops start rattling my cage I have a great fella in Staples in the city (shitty) that sometimes can do same day repairs. Jerrimy in Staples/Prince George is my savior eh. Aside from keeping my lap tops off a lap these little computers give me no grief at all. An hour or two directly on a lap will burn them up in no time at all. Bad enough they don't come with directions to not put them on our laps for doing just that. You have already left me in the dust trying to understand what your talking about. Give me an inch & a half wrench and a 16 lb hammer with a short handle I am far more comfy with,. Those I fully understand, LOL. Well ole son. One dat, sometime I can sit with you and you can teach me how to speak Greek and Latin old friend, LOLOLOLOL. Of course hugs for your wonderful Lady !
How's she goin'? Ha Ha Ha!! Dean, I'm sure with your resourcefulness you could master computer building in no time flat!! They aren't that hard because even I can do it and I just learned how to spell 'IBM' last week!! LOL Thanks for tuning in. Take care!!
@@GrampiesWorkshop LOL.
How do they say it ? Ignorance can be, or is bliss, LOLOLOL.
@@TomokosEnterprize Ha Ha Ha!!!
I agree with @OrangeismyNewGreen mike, you will be doing the neighbour's pc soon lol
How's she goin'? Ha Ha Ha! I just finished redoing my old PC for Janet. Now we have 2 fancy machines with lights!! LOL Take 'er easy!!
Go Mac and then you're done..........I bought a cheap used macbook pro and it works flawlessly for everything and most importantly editing........
How's she goin'? You know I have never even used a MAC before. But I hear they are excellent for editing and graphic applications. Thanks for commenting. Take 'er easy!!
This is totally not in my wheelhouse... I'm very ignorant when it comes to puters... lol
How's she goin"? I hear ya Denis. Puters can be intimidating. But building a camp in the woods with no power is pretty intimidating too!! LOL Take 'er easy!!
