    I’ve had a 4tb crucial P3 on my Onexplayer device without a heatsink and my drive temps don’t go above 65°C….

    I did the same with mines right out the box. I never even turned it on. Only difference is I used a 512GB micro SD card I had laying around the house. I also ordered a low profile heat sink for it. But since I see you were able to get a beefier one on there I may do the same as well.

      @Will_Bx_NYC_718..Sup homie? after you convinced me to get the upgrade and having watched CJ’s video, I ordered a 4TB SSD & 4 heat sink options 😅 bcuz I don’t know which one is gonna fit best. Since I only had my Ally X for 2 days, I don’t have much to copy over. I didn’t want to bring everything over from the cloud. Wish me luck. I should have all the items delivered tomorrow 🤞 - 1Love

    Bro if ur really into upgrades then I might suggest for you to replace your cpu thermal paste with PTM790 pad or you could get into much challenging such as putting in liquid metal but take precautions first to avoid any damage to your ally x.
    Love your vid keep posting Rog ally content for games and upgrades.

  • @kewlztertc5386
    @kewlztertc5386 21 день тому

    I recommend you simply wrap the battery wires with a small amount of electrical tape.
    Placing a pad on top of the heatsink reduces airflow, and efficiency of the heatsink.

    You don't need to clone this. If you are using a fresh drive and don't care about the data on it ROG bios has an option to download/install everything via wifi cloud. It's handy!

    I don't understand one thing, what about warranty? Everybody speaks about changing the SSD card right out of the box. Doesn't that void the warranty??

    • @Sanuske4
      @Sanuske4 Місяць тому +1

      I don't recommend breaking anything but as long as there isn't a warranty sticker broken over any of the screws nobody will know (just switch back to original SSd if you need to RMA). I am assuming there isn't one since nobody mentions it.

    • @dmljr917
      @dmljr917 Місяць тому +1

      No it doesn’t, at least in the US. Of course if you break something while doing so, it’s not going to be covered though.

    • @kewlztertc5386
      @kewlztertc5386 21 день тому

      It doesn't void the warranty. The warranty is upon each individual component inside the device.
      This is very similar to a desktop PC.
      If you break the motherboard when swapping the drives, then your warranty on the motherboard is void.
      If you break the battery connector when unplugging it, then the warranty on your battery or motherboard (depending on which side of plug is broken) is void. And so on.
      BTW, I sent my OG Ally in with an upgraded SSD installed, in for RMA for the infamous SD Card failure.
      Only negative is they wiped my SSD (factory reset).

      @@kewlztertc5386 While I get what you're saying and appreciate that kind of warranty, it really doesn't mean jack if they don't honor it. But I haven't had an Asus product in ages or really had issues with the ones I had so can't comment on that experience aside of all the ally drama.

    I went on here to see if the top left and top right screws on the back were also captive like the bottom middle screw. It seems that yours isn’t and I’m pretty sure every model only has the captive screw on the bottom middle on the back however, the other day I tried removing the back plate to take a look at my new X and for some reason, the top left and top right screw didn’t want to come out. I didn’t want to strip the screws so I stopped after a few tries, but it was clear that the top left and top right didn’t wanna come out when I held the console, and the other screws fell out. I also on the previous model and with the previous model as everyone knows the only captive screw was the bottom middle to which I’m sure is the same with the Allie X however, for some reason, mine left and right top don’t want to come out. This is stressing me out any help I’d appreciate it

    Hi I have a couple of questions. I just bought the rog ally X still in the box haven’t opened it yet. Since I haven’t played with it. I want to install a 4 tb. Do I still need to clone the 4 tb hard drive or can I just install it like that since I haven’t played with it yet?

    • @trentl.2467

      This is due to how manufacturers represent their storage. Unfortunately this is consistent with all manufacturers.
      One kilobyte is equal to 1024 bytes, but manufacturers use 1000 to show their storage.
      This would make 4TB (according to them).
      There is four steps that would take you from bytes to terabytes.
      Bytes -> Kilobytes -> Megabytes -> Gigabytes -> Terabytes
      That would be 4 x 1000 x 1000 x 1000 x 1000. Which is 4,000,000,000,000 (4 Trillion).
      When taking this 4,000,000,000,000 and dividing it by 1024 four times, you end up with ~3.637 Terabytes.
      Any 4TB drive you buy will have the same issue.
