But let's forget all of this and it's Rich's fault..
Look what the U.S. Gaming Tech News Publication Kotaku had to say about this..
Um Um Um will you take a look at this?? *"Rich was driven to take apart a handheld console cause of it's low memory capacity."*
Here what others are saying!
*"Rich needing more storage must of influence him!!"*
You reviewed technology in the USA. YES!!! YES!!!!
I would like to see you take apart other handhelds and consoles too..
@@kenrickeasonI want to see his dad do it
Update to the T
T is for Taint.
I don't recall having such a hard time when I did this. The process went pretty smooth. But one of the first things I did when I got my device was apply all of the updates so that's probably why
That is the proper way to do it. I got mine applied all the updates first then changed out the SSD to 2TB. It works fine and I’ve been gaming on this device with no issues since June
Jay I really like the edit of the video, Congratulations. And also great video btw to you and Rich, Love ya.
I love how Rich can successfully install a 2230 nvme SSD in an Asus ROG Ally, yet QuantumTV can’t install an SSD in his PS5 without stripping the screw (with his dollar store tool kit).
Are you serious?? Omfg.
I mean Rich's Dad was an engineer he probably learned a few things from him growing up lol
He had an energy drink and farted that’s why succeeded
@@aarongavin1204My dad wasn’t even around and I figured out. I bought an IFIXIT kit at Best Buy and started taking apart PCs when I was 16.
Gladly been watching you for years now Rich, keep posting brudda
Tutorials on the channel now? Excellent.
That "shorter" had some torque in it 😂.
you are right about the updates in my experience also. I always suggest people keep checking both apps for updates often. Also windows optional updates has had a few drivers as well to update.
Love Jays editing.
"NO TAINT"
4:25 I thought a demon took over at that point
The opening of the videos is great!
15:39 As someone with a ROG desktop, I have to go through the same thing. You would assume everything you need to update would be under just one thing, but no...there are two separate things I constantly need to check to keep updated.
Make a suggestion to the forums to see if some smart cookie could write a script to perform this for you.. I'm talking about the bios for the device. I don't know enough about modern bioses to know if there is a schedule feature to perform checks.
You don't need software to keep things updated on a desktop. You have a prebuilt, you m so you decide to use this. Just uninstall the software and keep things updated through Windows.
@@Crecross I honestly do for this one. Understatement: I'm not a tech person. All I know is that if I don't keep MyAsus and Armoury Crate updated, I have very loud, very annoying performance issues. Didn't have to go through this with my older PC.
Only three weeks after launch and 50 other SSD upgrade videos. On the cutting edge of technology here at RTU.
thanks Rich, this tutorial helped after all the others i watched didnt help my problem. I just recieved my Ally back from asus with a new motherboard , i had the dreaded sd issue. I swapped out the hd with a larger one and had nothing but trouble, only fix was after watching your vid and reinstalling the old hd and doing all the updates was i able to swap out for the new hd
All great videos! Discovered you during lockdown.
Just don’t wear a PF shirt aging lol
A man upgrading his SSD in his ROG Ally on RUclips
Thanks for the vid as usual! What's your luck with fail/corruption rate for these larger storage capacities?
I love how lul this is while also being wlquality helpful content u and Jay are the best.
TECH REVIEW IN THE USA?!?
16:13 This was the realest thing I've ever heard Rich, it has forever changed my life. Thank you
I was watching this while at work and that first screw burp almost got me in trouble. Thank you for the video. 😎👍
I don’t own a ROG ally but still watch. Hope your well Rich
This SSD works great in my Steam Deck too.👍
Try to relax your asus for best results
Hey rich you didn’t need to do all those updates. The problem is the date and time on the bios screen, fix it and it’ll work fine
6:30
I also like living, Dangerously - Austin Powers
ReviewTech reviewing tech, this is new
for anyone looking to do this get yourself a cheap dock either with a built in nvme socket or use an external nvme enclosure power everything up get a free copy of macrium reflect and just clone the drive BEFORE you ever take the original drive out ... once finished swap drives... all done
Thank-you, Rich! 😎👍
Make sure the date and time is correct before clicking recovery in the bios as well as plugging the battery back in after the install (I just went through this) to save yourself some headache and time!
My Ally Cloud Recovery prompted “ the device is not support for this function” do I need to update all bios and software before upgrade SSD? or because of the Date and Time in bios? If so can you help explain 🙏!
My first step of replacing the hard drive was simply creating a Windows bootable image on a flash drive. After installing the new 2tb drive, just boot the image.
Awesome content, massive inspiration to us smaller creators 👍👍
you talk alot without really saying much
Agreed.
Same goes to you big boy
Hold up, is Rich talking about tech? I never expected that!
I think I'm happy with my Steam Deck, I think something like this could make sense if you don't have a powerful PC or laptop...
I bought the cheapest model Deck fully planning to upgrade the SSD immediately, but I mostly just played Indie/ small/ old games off SD, it's working perfectly. I'll play games like Cyberpunk on my PC. I'll still probably throw a 1TB NVME in it later, now that I'm using Desktop mode and downloading other stuff the 64GB drive is filling up. I might also look into dual booting Windows for a little more compatibility with the non Steam games.
Yup, I did the same thing. I bought the 64gb Steam Deck, a 1Tb 2230 Samsung NVMe SSD ($70), and a 512gb microSD ($50) all for a total of $550.
Installing the SSD is easy, but delicate work. Also, if you do upgrade it, keep the original 64gb SSD! If you ever need to RMA your Deck for any reason, you'll have to put it back in before you send it.
Lol all that stress when you could not got a rog ally with windows already lol
@@frostygameroffline_prism9578 The Rog Ally is almost twice the price and I already have a dedicated gaming PC, and a laptop.
So far I've been able to play 100% of the games that I've tried to/ want to play on Steam O.S.
So I ask: what's all this "stress" you're going on about?
And no, I couldn't have gotten a ROG Ally before it came out.
I have both and I think they complement each other nicely. I just leave more intensive games on the Ally, and the rest on the Steam Deck.
@@LemonRush7777 Yup, that's exactly what I do also, but I play the intensive games on my laptop or PC.
If I didn't have a laptop I would definitely think about getting an Ally for longer travel/ vacation, but the Deck is doing great with the smaller arcade style games that I like to jump in and out of really quickly while close to home.
It's like:
Home AAA- PC/ Laptop
Home quick games- Deck/ 3DS
Running around town- 3DS/ Deck
Visiting nearby family- Deck/ 3DS
Visiting far family- Deck/ Laptop
Vacation/ Hotel- Laptop/ Deck
I upgraded mine to 1tb last night and was stuck at the checking spinner but all my software was up to date! what ended up being the problem for me was the date and time was NOT correct in my bios! once I fixed that cloud recovery worked like a charm!
Can you explained more in detail, I try to upgrade to 2280 but Cloud Recovery prompted “device is not support for this function”😢. Thanks!
Bill gates. Shirtless. Riding on birds.
We are watching a thoroughly baked bird father
The thumbnail text made me think this was about your daughte lol😂
Let’s go, climb up on the top bunk with me and Jay and the birds. While we Netflix and chill and eat Jay’s roommates diabetic brownies.
Love the opening music lol. Let’s go.
lmao the Spawn Wave cut
I actually haven't got myself in a long time. Then again, how often do I go to Sam's club or the home Depot.
Brilliant video what temperature does it run at now? I've seen so many different videos some saying remove the black blanket and some saying put a heatsink on it with the black blanket or without it I'm so confused
I wish I found your video first. Thanks so much.
You should review this thing. Reviewing tech in the USA.
Now imagine a Nintendo Switch that had this capability.
Instead of 120 million sold we would be looking at 150 million sold.. Nintendo has the games, they are missing the hardware that will make all their games shine.. I really believe Nintendo hurt themselves creatively by being cheap on hardware..
@@doomfan1359macho nacho mods channel is awesome.
@@doomfan1359 just get a steam deck or an ROG ally then
Who uses pre installed operating systems with all the bloatware?
Thanks for the tutorial! I am going to really save this video
What are the specs of the new ssd you installed?
3:28 i demand taint
Low effort rich, new name
You got the nerve and gall to wear a Planet Fitness tshirt
Super simple and it only takes 12 hours to get it back up and running
I love my Ally. It's a Windows PC, so I just cloned the drive to a 2TB 2230 with easeUS and swapped out with no issue.
Anyone know that bame of the background music??
Bo.
I upgraded mine yesterday, super easy. Glad I sold the Deck a while ago, no need to go back.
Did you have to reinstall all the games and apps again after installing the new SSD or is that what the cloud recovery is for?
@@natoooop I just reinstalled the games.
Hope you have a good day, Rich 👌
Great Video Rich! You had me laughing! You Rock! 🤟🏼
Didn’t you delete a video that said something about the ROG Ally having an issue? I wonder if anyone know what it is
He lies 24/7
Are you wearing the planet fitness shirt for irony? 😅
When he said the bottom middle screw was
S̶̲͘H̵͉̚Ö̸̺Ŕ̷̦T̸͉͌E̵̼͛Ȓ̵̫
I felt that.
It’s not the same anymore. Just swapped mine finally went through no problem
As someone with an ROG Zephyrus (I wanted an easy pre-built high-end laptop because I don't have space for a desktop, shut up), that Armory Crate menu is VERY familiar.
I ended up installing Win11 off a bootable flash drive (clean install) and did some reg edits to get the taskbar tablet mode and installed everything separately. Runs amazingly now.
This is what I did, however, can I get a link to these regedits I should do?
Center screw shouldn't be removed only unscrewed.
You can then Push on thei screw to Open the case, no pry tool needed.
Rich, I bought same SSD as you. Do you hear a noticeable hum now? My ssd is now louder than my fans at idle.
Here we go
Time for guessing game: What do you all think is Rich's wi-fi network name? nice video Rich...
Nice.👍
I did updates and got stuck at checking
Restarted it
Went to bios again and top right you will see the time edit it
And continue with the same steps
It did cloud recovery then restarted and took me to the bios again for some reason I selected same steps again
Said checking for few mins
Now it’s downloading I think 14gb
On 9% will take time
38%
Configuring USMT
Finishing
Done!
1.81TB 🎉
Rich, you forget an update!!!. Make sure to plug in the Ally into the chicken on your desk!!!
Also that middle screw at the bottom does not pop off just unscrew it and once it does the clicking feel it's good to pop off
You don't sound paranoid at all to me. Shoot, I would not even do that. I will just use what I have.
Got the z1 extreme! Small knit pics...no digital keyboard with numb keys is pain from time to time, touch screen can be a pain at times,playing gta5 on the go ...isn't ideal unless you're near a power outlet
Install it real good
We want the yellow shirt. Not the purple one.
Rog ally is just perfect man I love it so much, the only thing i hate is the dpad. I was raised on windows and I look to make this my all in one device and yes I had the steamdeck since launch but I'm loving this more .
Great content as always but you are entertaining all around 😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂 this guy is actually wearing a planet fitness shirt. Enjoy that soda pop bud
do more videos like this, how about a steam deck memory upgrade for us gorilla hands guys?
The cloud recovery does not work. Do not rely on this. I have found this out the hardway. I and many others keep getting the network error message when it comes time to recover the image. I am attempting to do this via a recovery disk and I am unsure if it will work.
Pixel fold next? 👀
Didn't know RTU is reviewing tech now hahahahahaha
You SOB!!! I want that so bad.. you lucky dotard😢
I'd ask would you build and create your own console that can last?
Don't delete this video too now
The chance of static electricity breaking a device while changing parts it's so low that you might as well win in a lottery and I'm not joking here. No idea why people still think that's a thing, I changed parts of like 20 PC's and build them all and not a single time did I break a PC with static electricity. Linus Tech Tips even did a video showing that it is "almost" impossible to break something with static electricity even if you intentionally try to break it.
True.. but we still use this method in production because it's happening more often than you might think! Especially under certain climates. Why risk it if it's so easy to fix.
How to format your SD card on the ROG Ally:
Step 1, Douse it in gasoline.
Step 2, Light it on fire.
the live updates is asus itself and it will notify when it has 1. you can postpone or restart now. i believe you can have your updates do automatically as well.
Hey Rich can you link where you bought the whole set of tools of ifixit?
The problem is the date in the bios not the updates. Other RUclipsrs have mentioned this
Is this the same ssd that the steam deck uses? I have 2 sitting around from the deck. The OG 512g and a 1TB. I ended up getting a 2TB for $190 on newegg several months ago that use to be over $400.
PC Gaming in a nutshell gotta go to 2 different pieces of software just to update your device lol 🤣🤣🤣
Love your vids rich. If you have any spare desktop pcs I'll gladly pay for the shipping
Can someone confirm if bios 319 nerfs performance. Some say it does and some say it doesn’t
I have the same problem.
What I do is
1. Updated software same as this videos.
***2. Manually updated date and time in bios setting.
Then it is sloved.
For me the "Checking" process take around 5-10 minutes.
It should be noted that video game players are not nodders nor video game testers. That is why they are mad since video games should be fixed with all of the needed content before releasing them.
I heard you can only do the cloud recovery once. Is that true?

When, If I should swap to this device than my steam deck?
