4TB on NVME the 4TB won't with because it is thicker because it has nand chip on both sides, and with heatsink even it won't fit, and lets say you by force make it fit, you will have issue to use because of power delivery on board (components) are not strong for that 4TB to perform.

what size ssd do i need for this laptop the asus e410?this is something google says The other thing you'll want to check before you go out and buy a replacement SSD is your drive's form factor; you need to make sure the drive will fit in the laptop.

I mostly use it to go online to clear out one of my Gmail accounts that's consistently in danger of no more storage & decided to use this also to play my sims4 games on since the original reason to buy was to get a wfh remote position but the laptop doesn't meet most specifications for many of the positions.. I've been trying to look for memory for this laptop bc the sims4 game requires 31gb and I only have 18gb available 😒 .. I thought it could only take sata ssd but it can take the gaming or regular PCLe NVMe ssd? Because I keep getting conflicting info online and while I'm a techie to a point... this will be my 1st time adding ssd to a computer (so I'm also thanking u for this tutoral bc its mad simple .. here i thought it was gonna be hard) . Also Samsung is better than Crucial? In what ways is it faster? Because since the ram is only 4gb and sims4 can be used on 4gb although they definitely recommend 8gb but since can't upgrade ram to 8gb ... ?
Thank you for your feedback! If you wish to support the channel, you can like, subscribe, or both! Regarding your question, First of all, you can add an NVMe SSD as it utilizes the PCI-E interface. We have successfully upgraded this laptop model for clients many times. However, it's worth noting that we came across two units of this particular model that only supported m.2 SATA SSDs. I recommend going with Samsung SSDs, specifically the Samsung Plus series, as they are known for their superior reliability and durability compared to Kingston, Adata, and Crucial. We have encountered numerous failures over years with other brands, whereas Samsung SSDs have proven to be very reliable. Unfortunately, the RAM in this laptop is not upgradable. If you have any further questions or requests in the future, please don't hesitate to ask.

ok, update the BIOS ship. then double check that is fully inserted (reinsert). also check in bios menu that sometimes they put an option for m.2 to enable or disable. if you see any m.2 option then enable it. also can you give the exact model for the laptop the full model number. because there are two models and one takes m.2 NVME and the other takes m.2 SATA (has two cuts on the pins), also this m.2 ssd are delicate against shots, or they do get defective sometimes depending the model you purchase, we purchase a lot of m.2s in a months and 1 in 15 are defective

Great guide thanks, I've just got this laptop and installed the drive however it doesnt show up in either BIOS or Disk management in Windows 10, did you have to adjust any BIOS settings to get the drive to be recognised or do you suspect I have a faulty drive? Any help much appreciated thank you
did you make sure its an NVME ssd m.2 ?, if so what brand is it?, and after placing it go to bios check if the storage is detected and look for an pci express option to enable it. but as default it should be. we have upgraded many of this laptop in our shop without going to bios. but check your bios. thank you for the support to the channel.
@@uFixTek Thank you, yes its NVME M2 SSD, brand is HP. It doesnt show up in BIOS or Disk Managment. I have updated the BIOS but cant think anything else other than the drive is faulty perhaps? Thanks again for the reply, if you have any further suggestions they would be very welcome
last week i had a subscriber with a similar issue and the ssd was defective, she replaced it and it worked just fine, return it and get a new one and make sure you ground yourself, by touching a a metal table and grab the ssd from sides and dont touch the chips.
@@uFixTek ASUS tech support have just emailed me to say that the E410MA doesn't support NVME drives only SATA based M2 drives (im not 100% sure of the difference but the NVME definitely fit into the available slot). I have a new NVME drive arriving today so will check that one and report back
New NVME was picked up straight away in Windows and works like a charm, the original one must have been faulty. Shame that ASUS are giving out incorrect info though. Thanks again for the guide, it proved really helpful
Hi I got a laptop like that one the L410M and I got an M.2 SSD but it isn't nvme, it is SATA. Should it work on this model? I don't care about the difference in speed but compatibility. I can't return the SSD from my country as it has already shipped and it is on its way.

The issue is that the CPU is the bottleneck of the performance. These laptops are weak in terms of CPU power. If you have a fast NVMe SSD, it will run adequately for office use. However, I don't believe it will be optimal for the program you are using. I recommend looking for a laptop with an i5, i7, or even an i3 processor for better performance.

unfortunately this is how this is a dirty move from any brand asus or hp or dell, they are all have different category for laptops the horrible cheap ones are made beautiful from outside so people don't look inside :/ the components that are used are low grade capacitors and resistors
Thank you for the feedback and your support to the channel :P and regarding your comments yes it its horrible that they doing this, and the reason is they trying to copy the cellphone scam system! so they can sell different versions a higher cost, for e.g same model 8gb for much higher than the cost of the 4gb extra stick. and 16gb version at triple the cost and so on. the companies now they dont want people to upgrade then want to categorize and resell and the war is "who can sell the most product" take for e.g iphone 16gb version and 32gb and so on and if you knew that the emmc chip from 16gb to 128gb its only in cents for them. but they sell it to up at 300$+ same with macbook laptops now all the ram soldered on motherboard and even the ssd soldered on motherboard! its truly sad. how they trying to scam the consumers by not breaking the law and using the ignorance of the consumers of not knowing whats going under the hood.
@@uFixTek I agree with every bit. The world is (has been) going the wrong direction for a long time now, and Apple championed planned obsolesence, and selling extra pennies for hundreds, but now it creeped into the PC market too. I mean that as in PC vs. Mac, even though Macs are still personal computers, but they pretend they are better which is another cunning marketing strategy. It is horrible that they are making their money on landfills. I just placed an order for my new laptop. Took me 10+ hours to pick one, in part due to the 4Gb vs 8Gb or upgrade option price gap. I mean yeah, I had some pretty particular criteria, like keyboard layout and size, but yeah, another pathetic trend... Why did Full HD 1080 resolution became mainstream on 6 inch phones, before laptops? You can still buy 15.6", 1366x768 non-IPS laptops today. And the PC industry wonders why they are in trouble? Okay, I better stop there. Late night here is turning into early morning now.

4TB on NVME the 4TB won't with because it is thicker because it has nand chip on both sides, and with heatsink even it won't fit, and lets say you by force make it fit, you will have issue to use because of power delivery on board (components) are not strong for that 4TB to perform.

Regarding your question, First of all, you can add an NVMe SSD as it utilizes the PCI-E interface. We have successfully upgraded this laptop model for clients many times. However, it's worth noting that we came across two units of this particular model that only supported m.2 SATA SSDs.
I recommend going with Samsung SSDs, specifically the Samsung Plus series, as they are known for their superior reliability and durability compared to Kingston, Adata, and Crucial. We have encountered numerous failures over years with other brands, whereas Samsung SSDs have proven to be very reliable.
Unfortunately, the RAM in this laptop is not upgradable.

The issue is that the CPU is the bottleneck of the performance. These laptops are weak in terms of CPU power. If you have a fast NVMe SSD, it will run adequately for office use. However, I don't believe it will be optimal for the program you are using. I recommend looking for a laptop with an i5, i7, or even an i3 processor for better performance.
will be the same with this model? Asus E410MA-EK163TS
hank you for the feedback and support, regarding your question:
yes its almost identical.
@@uFixTek Thank you very much! I'm thinking of buying it...
good luck and enjoy it if you need help with anything let me know , i would appreciate if you use my link to purchase :) i get a bit back in %
Hy can I upgrade the ram because in website they say it can goes to 12 gigs? But I don't know where to add
Thank you! if you wish to support the channel you can LIKE or SUB or both :P
regarding your question: unfortunately the rams are soldered on the board and they are not replaceable or up-gradable,
they are like cellphone (iphone) they come with 4gb version and 8gb and 12gb version. we get this laptops a lot in the store and people keep thinking they can upgrade and buy the 4gb and hoping for upgrade :(
I just bought an Asus E410M and upgraded to Win 11. I have only one program on it that could easily be reinstalled. If I upgraded to this SSD - how would I move/install Windows on this drive - considering that C drives do tend to fill up easy - despite trying to install programs on the non c drive?
Thank you for the feedback! if you wish to support the channel you can LIKE or SUB or both :P
regarding your question: if you place a new ssd, you can't transfer the windows install, you will need to install windows 10. if you try cloning it will give you a lot of error and crashes, we tried.
@@uFixTek Thanks for replying. If I did a fresh install Win 11 on the new SSD would I be able to format the C drive so I didn't have 2 Win 11's on my computer? Thanks again.
yes you can format the old C drive and use it as an extra storage, awesome job my friend :)
@@uFixTek SSD from the link above purchased and while initially it wasn't shown in the computer, after reinstalling and installing again, then some work in disk management - it showed up fine, and using Samsung's own clone software I transferred everything from the small drive to the big. Works great and thanks again.
motherboard doesn't have a screw for ssd. what size do i have to buy. i'm confused
thank you for the support, and regarding your question you will need to get this kit and use the screws from the kit,

Hello again I wanted to ask how to Unallocated disk 1
www.dummies.com/computers/pcs/how-to-use-unallocated-drive-space-in-windows/
Does anyone know how i can boot the second SSD without UEFI (classic) to start a Linux Mint formated Drive?
go to bios and change the boot to legacy and you set. turn off secure boot in order to change the legacy.
Hi, i was wondering if the SSD can be a m.2 NVME PCie
Thank you for the feedback and your support by a sub :P
regarding your question: yes its an m.2 nvme
@@uFixTek thanks, but the information i need is if i need a PCie or a SATA III
@@ramencito4833 NVME only works on PCIE, so if the m.2 its nvme compatible that means its a PCIE.
@@uFixTek daah~ thank you friend! UwU
anytime my friend :P
Can I connect SSD disk M,2 (PCIe 3,0 4x NVMe)? Thanks for answer.

hi. After we add m.2 drive, can we go bios and boot to that drive? i would love to try this laptop for my mother in law and would do windows 10 home (not S) on the m.2 upgrade, if possible. thank you in advance
Yes, after adding go to bios and change the boot order, or disable emms. and fresh install windows using a usb 8g and download windows media creator tool.
thank you for the support and feedback to the channel.
Can we upgrade a CPU? Or is it not removable?
thank you! for the feedback and your support to the channel by SUB :P
regarding your question: THE CPU is BGA for the same reason its soldered on motherboard its none upgradable. sorry to inform you.

I saw these modded to support 512GB eMMC and 16 GB of RAM. Much more capable then.
Yes, you can install a 512GB eMMC, but you will need to desolder the onboard chip and reball the new one (experienced BGA soldering required). However, keep in mind that the CPU in these laptops is a Celeron, which is not designed for heavy workloads.
Hello! Can I use Samsung 970 EVO Plus [MZ-V7S250BW] 250 GB (NVMe M.2, PCI Express 3.0) to this laptop? Please help 🥺

Damn! I don't have a guitar pick,🎸
they are really cheap and very handy to have around get them on amazon :P
amzn.to/3kQB7tF
Might as well buy a guitar than a laptop. LOL😂. I can also rest the guitar on my lap.🤣🤣
20 picks for sale, that’s how many times I will open the back of my laptop. I could see it now zapping my ram and motherboard with the metal pick 😀⚡️⚡️💻
ROFL, use a credit card or anything that looks like a hard metal sheet. or get a guitar PICK. 🤣
thisn is not ssd this emmc
the memory internal is emmc , the same in cellphones and tablets, and the one we install is SSD NVME.
no wonder why this is really cheap.
unfortunately this is how this is a dirty move from any brand asus or hp or dell, they are all have different category for laptops the horrible cheap ones are made beautiful from outside so people don't look inside :/
the components that are used are low grade capacitors and resistors
4G ram in 2020? And no socket to upgrade? This is made to be e-waste in a couple of years. Shameful.
Thank you for the feedback and your support to the channel :P
and regarding your comments yes it its horrible that they doing this, and the reason is they trying to copy the cellphone scam system!
so they can sell different versions a higher cost, for e.g same model 8gb for much higher than the cost of the 4gb extra stick.
and 16gb version at triple the cost and so on.
the companies now they dont want people to upgrade then want to categorize and resell and the war is "who can sell the most product"
take for e.g iphone 16gb version and 32gb and so on and if you knew that the emmc chip from 16gb to 128gb its only in cents for them. but they sell it to up at 300$+
same with macbook laptops now all the ram soldered on motherboard and even the ssd soldered on motherboard!
its truly sad. how they trying to scam the consumers by not breaking the law and using the ignorance of the consumers of not knowing whats going under the hood.
@@uFixTek I agree with every bit. The world is (has been) going the wrong direction for a long time now, and Apple championed planned obsolesence, and selling extra pennies for hundreds, but now it creeped into the PC market too. I mean that as in PC vs. Mac, even though Macs are still personal computers, but they pretend they are better which is another cunning marketing strategy.
It is horrible that they are making their money on landfills.
I just placed an order for my new laptop. Took me 10+ hours to pick one, in part due to the 4Gb vs 8Gb or upgrade option price gap. I mean yeah, I had some pretty particular criteria, like keyboard layout and size, but yeah, another pathetic trend...
Why did Full HD 1080 resolution became mainstream on 6 inch phones, before laptops? You can still buy 15.6", 1366x768 non-IPS laptops today. And the PC industry wonders why they are in trouble? Okay, I better stop there. Late night here is turning into early morning now.
Thanks!
