  • I'm doing a little upgrade to my HP Prodesk 490 G3 computer.
    I bought a PCI add-on card and an NVME SSD drive.

    The sata connections are used when using MSata and NGFF SSDs, you connect them to your motherboard sata ports. You are not getting 2 extra sata connections. Typically on thes e cards you can use one nvme and one ngff (sata), since yours has a msata, it can probably use 3 drives, 2 of which require plugging in to sata ports on mb. The top nvme type slot is keyed for NGFF drive which uses one of the sata connections.

    hey man just some advice dont spin the fans with air it created DC voltage that can fry components like the motherboard.

      more recent motherboards and PSUs have overvoltage protection to prevent that kind of damage, BUT you should always secure your fan blades when cleaning them with compressed air, as the air pressure can spin the fans fast enough to strip the motor bearing.

      hehe they fooled you too eh... pc tech 35 years. dunno but given all the protection on the board for those very reasons are kinda obvious,,,, a fuse (capacitor)... they cant feed energy in reverse lol the fans the first to die, then a stage caoacity system that simply dies before anything else, much like a fuse once it dies no power through what so ever..
      oh good to know.. electricity is drawn in, not forced. :-)

    The power is not problem with splitting I use something similar I have connected 2x1tb hdd and 480ssd but depending on your PSU

    You don't happen to have a machining channel, Rolling metal perhaps? Voice mannerisms, and possibly barn door are very familiar.

    It's really nice have alternate new storage solution even tho it's old motherboard it supports new ssd. :)

    I was getting excited thinking this may be a an older office system that still has PCI slots (not PCIe) and someone found an adapter for nvme to PCI they used to run a card in one of these ancient systems somehow. Cue my disappointing...

      The old PCI standard is too slow for NVME drives to work with it. You're tied to 133 MB/s, which is fast enough for Gigabit Ethernet, but pales in comparison to even PCIe 1.0, which can transfer at 4GB/s with a x16 slot.

      @@BrunodeSouzaLino I know. But putting the adapter inside some PCIe 1.0 or 2.0 x1 slot (as in what's available on most OEM boards) isn't exactly giving a modern NVMe drive any bandwidth either

      @@b0ne91 It's worse than that. Some workstation PCs will only run the PCIe x16 slot at that speed if you put a card which uses all 16 lanes, otherwise the slot runs at x1.

    I would have gone with a 2TB nvme drive and reinstalled windows to it. And i know that machine supports booting to PCIe. As for the add in card being able to use all 3 drives at once it can in theory. If the mobo supports bifurcation it should see all 3 of them, but with the extra sata ports on there I'm willing to bet theres a controller chip on there that will alow you to use all 5 at once.

    120 gig is $40? Ouch. Where are you? Here in USA, a 120GB NVMe is about half that.

    oh ok, simple mistake..since pci is only 533 megs a sec 4 fdd's would be easier in raid...... but uh thats a pcie card = 128 gigs a second :-)

    These old HP desktops and Gpu are extremely slow and outdated. With all respect to your video, looks like your It Technician skeels does need much more upgrade than this HP machine. Don't get me wrong lots people watch you and your quality of work is poor. This is constructive criticism not offensive one. Formatting wrong drive happend to me once, since then I always disconnect old drive before Windows installation, it is good practice to correctly name partitions as drive letters can create chaos. Last but not least, nvme can without warning simply die Highly Highly recommend live backup to One Drive or similar cloud solution. One Drive saved many small business from lost of years of work. Good luck with next video.

      You'll probably replace your M.2 drive for a new one before it starts to fail. There are people nowadays using storage servers which have nothing but flash memory and they're doing fine.

      @@BrunodeSouzaLino Trus me nvme drives can die without warning, usually I'd is memory controller that fail not the nand memory bank. With Raid configuration not a big issue but for a small business without proper procedures of backup can cost lot of money and stress, I seen this happening many times.

      @@maximmono1 The problem here is you are killing flash storage by the simple act of writing data to it. I mean, you could go for the brand new enterprise drives, but that will have a cost and they're only PCIe 5.0
