I just wanted to say, thank you for this video, it really helped me understand what I want to upgrade on my current system. I'll probably add 2 crucial p3+ 4tb PCIe m.2 SSDs now then in later exchanged the Ram for 2 Crucial 32GB ddr4-3200 SODIMMs.

@@uFixTek Oh I definitely subscribed. Also the 2 P3+4TB NVMEs are installed now. I need to check some settings on them, because they're performing under benchmark, but that is a problem for later today. Maybe.
Hi
Thank you for the video!
However I have a little issue
I put a 2nd SSD in the other slot, but it's not detected by my PC when I go to the storage. But in the task manager, it is detected as it says "Slot used 2 of 2" (but only one is showing on the side)
You should note that it was the SSD I had in a previous laptop (with probably the OS in it) so that's maybe why
Thank you for your feedback! If you wish to support the channel, you can like, subscribe, or both!
Regarding your question, once you put a SSD with OS or anything,...
Power on your computer and open Command Prompt (run as administrator).
Type "diskpart" and press Enter to open the DiskPart command-line tool.
Type "list disk" and press Enter to view the list of disks connected to your computer. Note the number assigned to the disk you want to erase.
Type "select disk #" (replace "#" with the number of the disk you want to erase) and press Enter.
Type "clean" and press Enter to remove all partitions and data on the selected disk. Be careful, as this operation cannot be undone.
Type "convert gpt" and press Enter to convert the disk to the GPT (GUID Partition Table) format.
Once the conversion is complete, you can exit DiskPart by typing "exit" and pressing Enter.
Now, you can proceed to Disk Management to create a new volume and assign a name to it:
Press the Windows key and search for "Disk Management." Open the Disk Management utility.
In Disk Management, you should see the unallocated space of the disk you erased.
Right-click on the unallocated space and select "New Simple Volume."
Follow the on-screen instructions in the New Simple Volume Wizard to create a new volume. You can choose the desired size, assign a drive letter, and specify a name for the volume.
Complete the wizard, and the new volume will be created and ready to use.
Please ensure you have backed up any important data on the disk before proceeding, as the clean operation will erase all existing partitions and data.
just use "create and format hard drive partitions" on windows and u should be able to see the device listed if recognised, then u will need to either initialize it or reformat it to be usable as a secondary drive
@uFixTek Thank you so very much for thus detailed explanation. I am somewhat tech savvy but couldn't find any explanation on how to enable the SSD after installation. Thanks for taking the time to explain it in such detail. Cheers!
Hi there, thanks for your video!
I want to install an external GPU by attaching a miniPCIe to PCIe adaptor at that 2nd slot. I will have to make an opening for the cable as well. Will this work?
Thank you for your feedback! If you wish to support the channel, you can like, subscribe, or both!
Regarding your question, yes you could do it just make a nice opening under a bit in an offset and you can do this without any problem.
Should you have any further questions or requests in the future, please don't hesitate to ask me.
Hello my friend I wanted to know tht the slot on bottom right with the case given can u use a hard disk there ?
Thank you for your feedback! If you wish to support the channel, you can like, subscribe, or both!
Regarding your question, yes you can and in this video i show how to remove and install the storage there.
cheers🍻
excellent video! i just wanted to ask if it fits one m.2 with a heatsink?
Thank you for your feedback! If you wish to support the channel, you can like, subscribe, or both!
Regarding your question, you don't need none of the m.2 ssd up to 2TB does not requires cooling, it will not affect the durability nor performance, any m.2 over 2TB then sure you will need the heatsink.
and if you want to place a hatsink you will need a very slim heatsink.

It's my pleasure my friend.

I have the asus tuf gaming a15 2023 FA507XV. Can I install an m2 sata 3 in the m2 nvme slot? I saw that you did the same thing as me but mine isn't recognized!
Thank you for your feedback! If you wish to support the channel, you can like, subscribe, or both!
Regarding your question, you can only place m.2 NVME ssd (m.2 sata won't work)
Should you have any further questions or requests in the future, please don't hesitate to ask me.
cheers🍻
hello thanks for your vid, it's very helpful. one question if you don't mind, I'm not so familiar with hardware: what SSD-SATA do you recommend for the spare slot? or does it can fit a PCIe Gen 3 one. too? I've seen there is SATA 3, is that one useful too? I was thinking about this one: "KingSpec 1TB NGFF M.2 SATA III 6 GB/s PCIe NVMe SSD". Thanks for your help.
It's my pleasure, my friend. 😊 I deeply appreciate your taking the time to provide feedback. If you're inclined to support the channel further, feel free to like and subscribe-or even both!
Regarding your question, sure you can have any NVME brand and up to 2TB, as extra storage and it will work, you can place a gen3 or gen 4 nvme and it will work as gen3.
the best brand of the nvme i would recommend is the samsung 980 pro: amzn.to/3Q6DoOm
Should you have any further questions or requests in the future, please don't hesitate to ask me.

@@uFixTek thanks a lot!!!!🕊
It's my pleasure my friend.
I recently purchased ASUS TUF A15 FA507RM and I’m considering to upgrade the SSD since it comes with 512GB initially. Am I only obliged to upgrade with another 512GB SSD or can I upgrade with 1TB SSD for the second SSD slot?
Thank you for your feedback! If you wish to support the channel, you can like, subscribe, or both!
Regarding your question, you can place a 2TB nvme on the 2nd slot without any issues, we have upgraded to for our clients.
the recommended model for the durability and security: amzn.to/3O2NM8E
Should you have any further questions or requests in the future, please don't hesitate to ask me.

Hi. So 2 TB is the max. limit for each M.2 slot?
Hi for the model FA506qm how much storage can I add in the secondary slot? the first slot has 512gb
Thank you for your feedback! If you wish to support the channel, you can like, subscribe, or both!
Regarding your question, you can go up to 2TB on each m.2 ssds, we have upgraded them on our clients and work just fine.
the best durable nvme i recommend: amzn.to/3QC6O83
Should you have any further questions or requests in the future, please don't hesitate to ask me.
hi @@uFixTek , I have an ASUS model FA506IV with AMD Ryzen 9 4900H and 1TB ssd m2. This model only have 2 slots for m2 ssd. Can I install an 2TB ssd and a 4TB on the 2nd slot?. Thanks !
my one didn't come with a caddy for the 2.5" and also the second m.2 slot is not sata compatible which is a downer.
Thank you for your feedback! If you wish to support the channel, you can like, subscribe, or both!
Regarding your question, you have a different reversion of this the older reversion don't come with caddy, there are many variants of this laptops.
Would a 4TB MECHANICAL Hard Drive fit in the 2.5in slot or would it be to thick?
🫠Regarding your question, It will be too thick you can only go up to 2TB slim hdd.
Should you have any further questions or requests in the future, please don't hesitate to ask me.
cheers🍻
Just to check I understand. I can have up to 3 SSD installed. 2 m.2 and 1 sata 2.5. Right?
Thank you for your feedback! If you wish to support the channel, you can like, subscribe, or both!
Regarding your question, yes you got it, you can have all this at the same time:
2x 2TB m.2
and
1x 2TB HDD (low profile) OR 1x 4TB sata 2.5'
Should you have any further questions or requests in the future, please don't hesitate to ask me.
cheers🍻
for the full size SDD does the laptop already have the 2.5inch Hard Drive Cable Connector or will i need to buy one?
Thank you for your feedback! If you wish to support the channel, you can like, subscribe, or both!
Regarding your question, if your laptop didn't come with 2.5" SSD or HDD then you will need to open the cover and most of the brands they will leave you with adapter in the empty space, and if you don't see the adapter there then you will need to purchase one.
Should you have any further questions or requests in the future, please don't hesitate to ask me.
cheers🍻
@@uFixTek much thanks.
It's my pleasure my friend. if you need help buying the (finding) the correct adapter let me know i will give you a link.
@@uFixTek please do :)
here is the adapter:

wait, i didnt understand.... the big ssd i see it but what are those thin ones? the one where he add it and screw it? those are another ssd? like the rectangle ones? bcs the square one I understand it. now I donno what ssd to buy...the square one or the rectangle one? or those are RAM?
🫠 Regarding your question, this laptop can accommodate two M.2 NVMe SSDs, each up to 2TB. Additionally, you can install a 2.5" HDD or SSD, up to 4TB, in the designated bay. All these storage options can be used simultaneously.
the links are in the video description.
then rams are in the middle of the motherboard.
cheers🍻
I have the Asus tuf FA506IHRB-HN082W. Is it the same?
🫠Regarding your question, yes it is the same model
how to deal with BSOD issue with this asus Tuf model? The issue occurs so frequently nowadays that even when internet is not connected, i ran into this trouble and its been going in since 1 year now :( i tried everything, there seems to be no improvement. can u advise? thanks in advance
Regarding your question, when we encounter that issue in the store, there are two solutions to check for:
The SSD or HDD may be degraded and causing Windows to crash. Replace the SSD with a new one and install Windows on the new SSD. If the crash still persists, proceed to the next step.
Check the RAM. Remove one stick and use only one. If the crash happens again, change the RAM.
You will need to run these tests. Cheers! 🍻
cheers🍻
@@uFixTek thank you, i lLdo both methods once my exams are over. as of now, i just removed and reinserted both ssd and RAM, .
It's my pleasure my friend.
but im 100% sure it is your ssd that is super degraded and this is the main cause.
good luck on your exams.
cheers🍻
Is Gen 4 SSD is compatible for this Model, i mean will Gen 4 SSD run on its original speed or will it reduce its performance and give similar read and write speed as Gen 3 SSD.
Please tell ASAP cause I've been to upgrade storage.
I only buy If Gen 4 SSD work with 7000 MB/s on this model. So please reply asap 🙏😭
Thank you for your feedback! If you wish to support the channel, you can like, subscribe, or both!
Regarding your question, if you place a gen 4 ssd it will run at the speed of gen3, i would recommend to place a gen 4 ssd so when its pushing the limits of the gen 3 port it wont over heat as it will not be running as gen 4.
Should you have any further questions or requests in the future, please don't hesitate to ask me.
cheers🍻
@@uFixTek I think if Gen 4 SSD not going to work on it's full extent than I go with Gen 3 SSD, what do you think about that cause it will be less expensive
And which is the best Gen 3 SSD can you please suggest
sure if you on budget then by all means go with gen 3 and the best durable and reliable nvme:
amzn.to/3vOVddm
this are very good gen3 nvme, we install them for our clients for years and never had issues.
