What's the best SSD Upgrade for the new XB Rog Ally X?
I see a lot of people recommending the 990 Pro for the Xbox Ally X, but before you go get the fastest and most expensive drive, think about power consumption. The stock Samsung MZ-VMA1T00 (PM9A1) already balances solid speed with power efficiency, usually drawing around 4.5W under load. The 990 Pro,

Drive enclosure or dock?
OWC 1M2 and wd_black sn850x Zero disconnects, even in sleep mode. The 1M2 is a passive cooled (silent) enclosure that keeps the SSD cooler than most active cooled enclosures The sn850x has more dram cache (FWIUS) compared to the Samsung SSDs for better sustained performance (write speeds).

5090 FE Secured. My watch is over.
I have a temp sensor on the back of my PSU and a sn850x on the back of the mobo, temp sensor maxed at 50°c and sn850 at 60°c, bearing in mind the ssd also generates heat. Not too worried with those temps

Tem diferença? 🥸
Cara, se for pra recomendar, a depender do preço, o legend 960 Max é insano, eu quase comprei um mas quando fui finalizar a compra acabou o estoque, acabei ficando como o MP600 pro XT da Corsair, mas adata sempre foi uma marca que considerei muito boa, todo mundo fala bem praticamente, e tem uma dur

Looking for external storage device
Store PS4 games on external hd ps5 games can only work off a external SSD. I got the WD black sn850 but make sure you get one with a heatsink rather than having to install yourself.

Best 2TB SSD upgrade?
i went through this last month with my M4. for reliability i'd look at the Samsung 990 Pro or WD Black SN850X. both have solid controllers and good heat management. some of the cheaper drives do fail over time especially with constant read writes. the 990 Pro has been super stable for me and works f

Which SSD?
I’d say go with the WD_Black. I have been using a WD_Black SN850X since I bought my PS5 Slim Christmas of 2024 & it’s been performing great. If you do go with WD_Black, do your self a favor & save some money & don’t purchase the SN850P. The SN850X & SN850P are literally identical & offer the same spee

advice and thoughts on my first ever build?
Update your bios to the latest ‘Version 3279’ which came out yesterday 8/5/25. You may want to save your overclocks somewhere before flushing the bios as it will not save a profile. Resizeable bar can be a bit weird on newer systems, if you ever encounter crashing or blue screens, disable it but con

All right, I’m using the base M4 version since 3 month now and it’s time for me to add extra storage. I’m considering buying an external SSD. What are you using ? So far, the best I saw is the Corsair EX400U 2To USB4. Any other recommendations ?
+1 for OWC 1M2 (I have 2 of them!!) and grab some SN850 1TB or 2TB. I'm using that setup on my Mac Mini M4 and offloaded the user folder onto it, and it runs 24/7 for the past 6 month, no issues with heat and speed is faster than the Mac's internal SSD (given I have Base 256GB SSD)
