Question *STABLE* NVMe - USB Adapter?

Quit asking people about thoughts. You really don't want to know. Which RTL9210? There are two, the original and now rtl9210B. I tried 1.25.7 referenced earlier and it was for the B revision only. I have ORICO PFM2-C3 RTL9210 non-B based and most current is 1.23.15.

Question M-Disc DVD

Are you just looking for long or longish term backups? If so just use HDDs but have two rotating copies. I've been just buying 5TB Seagate Portable for $90, but I been buying two. I used to make backups 6 months apart. One I labelled 1st half, other 2nd half. However, lately I've lazied on...

Question Is it worth Putting an M.2 SSD drive for Win 10 operating system ?

Have enough drive space? Also, what's the exact error? And if you have another machine, might as well use that.

Question Is it worth Putting an M.2 SSD drive for Win 10 operating system ?

Focus on NVME instead of M.2. M.2 is just the form factor/connector. SATA and NVME drives are available in M.2. You'll also want to check which m2 ports on that board are directly connected to the CPU instead of through a intermediatary chip (traditionally called northbridge/southbridge)...

Question Samsung 840 Writing at 100mb/s

840s non-EVO's write speed especially for that drive capacity is correct. Next time do a basic google search or even a search on Anandtech reviews for the drive itself.

Question Does having no DRAM in a SSD matter when putting it in a ps4?

No, once you put an SSD in the PS4, it's next bottleneck with loading data will be it's CPU.

Question *STABLE* NVMe - USB Adapter?

Downloaded the file and just as it describes it contains files for 9210B. I have 9210A and luckily the flash tool didn't detect the firmware bin after you point the folder containing the 1.25.7 firmware. For those wondering whether you have A or B, on the flash tool, it appears that the last...

Question How to Enable Multiple Remote Logins in 1 workstation ?

The majority of your questions can be answered here: http://woshub.com/how-to-allow-multiple-rdp-sessions-in-windows-10/ Essentially, it's a licensing restriction and you can get around it to an extent depending on what you want to achieve. There is always MS's Virtual PC (which requires more...

Question Slow Win 10 Startup with NVME SSD

I would do an msconfig to log the boot which can tell you what's taking the longest.

Question How concerned should I be with CRC Error Counts with Samsung SSD?

Do you have a SATA to USB adapter? Try to see if the CRC errors increase when running the same benchmark over that. It'll help narrow it down to the SATA controller or SSD or filesystem.

Question *STABLE* NVMe - USB Adapter?

Thanks, went form 1.23.9 to 1.23.15 and finally got my Orico PFM2-C3 to report the drive name. I just had to comment out two lines as so: ;SCSI_VENDOR = "REALTEK" ;SCSI_PRODUCT = "RTL9210" then do update. Nothing interesting (speed, features, heat, etc) to report with firmware 1.23.15 over...

Question AMD StoreMI - is it pointless, in this day and age of cheap NVMe SSDs?

Not pointless. I'd rather have more differing solutions to choose from than artificially limit yourself. Additionally, NVME SSD pricing is not stable. The bottom prices have been awesomely low ($.08-$.10/GB) for almost 2 years now. And I seriously doubt it'll prices will go up fast anytime...

Question *STABLE* NVMe - USB Adapter?

You answered your own question. The firmware file is for 583 not 576. Forcing it will be a disaster. I recommend returning that 576 based enclosure and moving on to 2nd gen USB-NVME chipsets. The ones I've found so far will tout support for 20Gbps.

For Hitachi, I think you can run Western Digital Diagnostics to get the SMART status and do a short test.

Question Intel 670 NVMe (QLC, third-gen?), looking pretty decent.

From storagereview's benchmarks' looks they refined the firmware quite a bit to get it more well behaved like the 660p. The 665p got a little goofy where latency was sometimes worse. Amazing that they are at 144layer. Let's see how cheap these get. These are the awesome budget drives that...
