Friend amazing video, lowed the graphics subbed. I have a Samsung 970Pro 1 TB but its on a PCIe Gen2x2 M.2 Slot. So on CrystalDiskMark 6.02 Benchmark software am only getting Seq Q32T1 READ: 847.4 MB/s WRITE: 792.9 MB/s after optimization with Samsung Magician! Its 1/3 of what is capable! I noticed you forgot talk about this Gen 1, 2, 3 and X speeds, also the cards you can get for M.2 Drives which can plug into either a PCIe 3.0 x16 slot or a X4 slot... Video update possibly?
Jeezus, thank you for this informative video! And even the list is spot on. Hope you release more vids because the animations and explanations are very professional and to the point, thanks!!
@@MilanSerbia14 yes.. last year i upgraded my old samsung 830 series to a 1 tb 970 pro and 2x 1 tb 860 evo in raid 0.. the os is ofc on the 970.. even tho my 830 didn't even fully max out the sata speeds possible and only did like something in the 400ish read and 300ish write i have to say the jump from hdd to the 830 was far more noticeable in terms of speed (boot, app starts, etc.) than going to the 970.. but that is because in day to day use we don't really utilize the speeds that often really.. iops are really more important for a os drive than sequential read/write speeds.. because an os in use usually doesn't write or read large chunks of data at once but tiny bits of data is read and written again and again.. i think what makes the difference is latency for how snappy a drive feels and not raw read/write speeds and normal sata ssds have low latency anyways.. yes there is certain tasks where m.2 ssds really shine but usually it's really hard to see any advantage over the sata drives while using a pc.. it's more like a second here a second there.. another thing is that we can only really utilize reads because writes well.. as long as you write something from ram okay.. but else there is nothing in my pc that reads fast enough to max out the 970's over 2700 mb/s write speeds.. my 860 raid gives me at least 1200 read and 1050 write.. so i would need 2 more to get close to what the 970 can do.. you'd really need a lot of sata ssds in a raid config or another m.2 drive were you constantly copy data from one to the other to utilize that sequential speeds..

Actually this content requires an update as I was already using a M.2 NVME on my now retired FX based system using a PCIe card as the motherboard lacked M.2, but Windows 10 supports it. I'm pretty sure it is also supported by the linux kernels and distro's. Please note that I am not saying incorrect, but requires an update due to the statement at about the 6 minute time mark. Provisioning has come a long way also. I also used PrimoCache and RAMDisk's on my system as it had 32G DDR3 @ 1600 which most people didn't have much experience with about five years ago. But that's probably covered in a different video I'll assume. But good coverage, thank you. :)
I suggest watching the coverage by Gamers Nexus if you are not already, as the content is not about gaming but hardware itself. Please note that I used this visual coverage on my topic on M.2|SSD's on my FB page. Never upgrade a machine that is going to be used by marketing that is next to an accountant. They won't understand. . Generally people will not comprehend that reading|writing to the same drive slows the process of transcoding video content and that more cores|threads are really used in performing these tasks. I still do not have my A+ though my first distro was Slackaware back in 1998 which installation is by far different from doing an install these days. ;) lol
@@Mauser1965 about the only thing that would need to be updated about this video is the inclusion of PCIe 4.0 drives. But otherwise there is nothing to really update about this content. Just because your board lacks m.2 doesn't mean a thing.
Kenneth, m.2 is just a different form factor. That's it. In fact, most M.2 SSD still use Sata III. Some of the newer ones use Pci-e but they are less common and more expensive. The one in my Thinkpad laptop uses Pci-e. I could of used an old school 2.5" SSD with a convertor cable if I wanted. It'd just auto- switch over to the SATA controller when its hooked up if I did. I chose to use an M.2 SSD though. The M.2 SSD is a little less lighter, it gives me more open space for airflow, and PCI-e is faster than Sata.
This was on my recommended list and I thought I wouldn't understand anything but Wow. Straight to the point, with nice pace, useful animation, and no music or distractions. Impressive work.
@@PowerCertAnimatedVideos can you help me please? In my country, recently Crucial P1, P2, and P5 m.2 SSD-s are in good prices. P5 is more expensive, but P1 and P2 are in the same priceline which I`d buy an m.2 SSD from. Firstly simply I just thought that P2 is newer than P1, and simply a better SSD in all aspects, then I`ve started to look for reviews, tests about the 2 SSD-s, and I`ve found that it`s not even a straight choose. When I saw P2, although it`s newer release and faster, it was mentioned that it doesn`t have DRAM cache, TLC variant (but I`ve learnt from the video that it`s not so important), and in the time of release it has an average speed. While I was searching reviews about P1, users didn`t really scandalize it, they consider it as a reliable SSD, and in the time of its release they praised the speed of it. So I get quite confused with this. I know that P2 is later and has faster speed, but I don`t know if someone has a 3rd gen. m.2 socket, and the SSD-s of that gen are all between 1-2000Mbit, then 1-2-300Mbit difference shoud count so much that choose the less reliable SSD? Sorry I forgot to mention that I have a Dell g3 3590 laptop and I would use the laptop to have the op. system on it and for playing games and occasionally edit own videos with a software. That SSD would be the only drive in the laptop. Please, can you help me which is the best choose? Thank you for your help in advance.
I cannot tell you how much this video has helped me. I have been pulling out my hair trying to understand the difference between an M.2 sata SSD and a sata SSD, trying to visualize what the hell a NVMe is (thinking the entire time it was a component on the motherboard itself) and you have given me some desperate answers I have been looking for.

2 Esdras 7:75 I answered and said, "If I have found favor in thy sight, O Lord, show this also to thy servant: whether after death, as soon as every one of us yields up his soul, we shall be kept in rest until those times come when thou wilt renew the creation, or whether we shall be tormented at once?" 76 He answered me and said, "I will show you that also, but do not be associated with those who have shown scorn, nor number yourself among those who are tormented. 77 For you have a treasure of works laid up with the Most High; but it will not be shown to you until the last times. 78 Now, concerning death, the teaching is: When the decisive decree has gone forth from the Most High that a man shall die, as the spirit leaves the body to return again to him who gave it, first of all it adores the glory of the Most High. 79 And if it is one of those who have shown scorn and have not kept the way of the Most High, and who have despised his law, and who have hated those who fear the Most High -- 80 such spirits shall not enter into habitations, but shall immediately wander about in torments, ever grieving and sad, in seven ways. 81 The first way, because they have scorned the law of the Most High. 82 The second way, because they cannot now make a good repentance that they may live. 83 The third way, they shall see the reward laid up for those who have trusted the covenants of the Most High. 84 The fourth way, they shall consider the torment laid up for themselves in the last days. 85 The fifth way, they shall see how the habitations of the others are guarded by angels in profound quiet. 86 The sixth way, they shall see how some of them will pass over into torments. 87 The seventh way, which is worse than all the ways that have been mentioned, because they shall utterly waste away in confusion and be consumed with shame, and shall wither with fear at seeing the glory of the Most High before whom they sinned while they were alive, and before whom they are to be judged in the last times. 88 "Now this is the order of those who have kept the ways of the Most High, when they shall be separated from their mortal body. 89 During the time that they lived in it, they laboriously served the Most High, and withstood danger every hour, that they might keep the law of the Lawgiver perfectly. 90 Therefore this is the teaching concerning them: 91 First of all, they shall see with great joy the glory of him who receives them, for they shall have rest in seven orders. 92 The first order, because they have striven with great effort to overcome the evil thought which was formed with them, that it might not lead them astray from life into death. 93 The second order, because they see the perplexity in which the souls of the unrighteous wander, and the punishment that awaits them. 94 The third order, they see the witness which he who formed them bears concerning them, that while they were alive they kept the law which was given them in trust. 95 The fourth order, they understand the rest which they now enjoy, being gathered into their chambers and guarded by angels in profound quiet, and the glory which awaits them in the last days. 96 The fifth order, they rejoice that they have now escaped what is corruptible, and shall inherit what is to come; and besides they see the straits and toil from which they have been delivered, and the spacious liberty which they are to receive and enjoy in immortality. 97 The sixth order, when it is shown to them how their face is to shine like the sun, and how they are to be made like the light of the stars, being incorruptible from then on. 98 The seventh order, which is greater than all that have been mentioned, because they shall rejoice with boldness, and shall be confident without confusion, and shall be glad without fear, for they hasten to behold the face of him whom they served in life and from whom they are to receive their reward when glorified. 99 This is the order of the souls of the righteous, as henceforth is announced; and the aforesaid are the ways of torment which those who would not give heed shall suffer hereafter." 100 I answered and said, "Will time therefore be given to the souls, after they have been separated from the bodies, to see what you have described to me?" 101 He said to me, "They shall have freedom for seven days, so that during these seven days they may see the things of which you have been told, and afterwards they shall be gathered in their habitations." 102 I answered and said, "If I have found favor in thy sight, show further to me, thy servant, whether on the day of judgment the righteous will be able to intercede for the unrighteous or to entreat the Most High for them, 103 fathers for sons or sons for parents, brothers for brothers, relatives for their kinsmen, or friends for those who are most dear." 104 He answered me and said, "Since you have found favor in my sight, I will show you this also. The day of judgment is decisive and displays to all the seal of truth. Just as now a father does not send his son, or a son his father, or a master his servant, or a friend his dearest friend, to be ill or sleep or eat or be healed in his stead, 105 so no one shall ever pray for another on that day, neither shall any one lay a burden on another; for then every one shall bear his own righteousness and unrighteousness." .....2 Esdras 7:75 //////////////
First of all I want to congratulate and thank you for this video. This video is by far the most illuminating and most clear video I have ever watched on youtube these days about clearing what M.2 NVMe and what it is NOT! Having watched at least a dozen videos on the issue, it is only this video which cleared out everything that was under the wraps in my mind. I think the powerful sides of this video are: 1) perfect animations 2) quite clear and slow description of things (many videos on youtube do not understand they are explaining the material i) to non-technical people ii) to technical people but who do not have much expertise in the area iii)to people whose mother tongue is not English) 3) sufficient information (not too much, not too less) 4) and just the technical information well balanced without any babbling, silly jokes or stupid phrases appearing every now and then- once again thanks and keep up the good work.
As most of the comments are suggesting, the effort you have put into simple explanations in the video is simply brilliant. Well done and thank you for the great effort. 👍
After _years_ of using HDDs, I finally just got an SSD, and *wow.* I was expecting a small boost but instead experienced the fasted boot up in my life.
I am still scratching my head about why would someone dislike this video. Everything said here was absolutely correct and highly informative. And it wasn’t also hypothetical and was presented with detailed data facts. Some people hit the dislike button just for the sake of it.
Dude you have the BEST VIDEOS I have ever seen on any social media platform. I was thinking today while watching people just talking using no graphics to show us what they are talking about and I hate listening to people on a video and all we see them do is talk with just their MOUTH FACE and no graphics.
Your video is well done. It is informative, interesting, and easy to understand. I am sure most people appreciate this type of explanation as much as I do. I have a technical background but I am not impressed when someone throws dozens of acronyms around in an attempt to show intelligence. It reminds me of the military. Side note: Someone told me that while he was in the service, he told his boss the same thing every morning. It was this. "Hey Sarge, I'm heading down to HQ for C&D." Sounding official, his boss agreed and knew the trip would take the customary 2 hours. It ended after 18 months when the Sargent asked "What is C&D ?" Oh, he replied, Coffee and Donuts. I look forward to watching more of your videos. G
Haven’t watched this video yet, but I’m happy just to see you still create UA-cam content. Studying your latest CompTIA A+ video at the moment & love it. Exam scheduled for August 30th. Thank you.
Francisco Santos Sad to say, but I’ve been studying for probably 5-6 months. Due to bouncing around from different study materials, while also trying to figure out the best way for ME to learn caused a major delay in achieving the cert.
Everyone buying an M.2 SSD should take careful note of 6:00 as almost everyone I know of still gets confused what nvme and sata is. Thank you for helping me, too!
Late to this party but thank you, this is just what I needed. I haven't built a bare bones system in a while (OK, a decade) and this resolved so many SSD questions that I had. As an old geek I really like to know why things go together the way they do and you have a wonderfully concise way of explaining things.
Probably because Linus is usually pretty clueless, his minions are continually correcting him.. It's difficult for someone to explain concepts which they themselves barely grasp...
This is the kind of special channel you hope would exist when you think of "UA-cam" as a whole. This is the very definition of looking up helping and finding it when you need it in a simple easy to digest format.
Woooooooooooowwww! Was searching internet for a while about all this buzz regarding m.2 and nvme. This is by far the MOST eloborated and best explaination I found. Now I know, thank you so much! Big time
I can't believe I really *SLEPT* on this these storage form factors for *YEARS* now. I've seen these on Amazon, I thought they were some kind of laptop memory never reading descriptions. 2017, My Son bought Me a Dell 5600 series, only opening it to add more memory and a 2nd hard disk drive. I didn't pay attention too much at the MotherBoard. End of 2020, both My houses caught fire due to vacant house in between being set on fire. Lots of fire/water damage and huge losses of many things. My Dell didn't get damaged at all other than debris being inside it. I finally after 2 years decided to work on it to see if it was still functional, it is and using it now. So, while vacuuming it out and wiping inside with alcohol, I noticed 2 slots for these types of drives marked *_NVMe & M.2 SSD._* Realizing something could be connected to the slots. I looked it up, slapped My forehead shocked of Me sleeping on these. I will be purchasing those *_"little sticks of gum."_* They're very cheap now.
Thank you so much for this video. I've been trying to understand M.2/NVME for ages and haven't been able to find a video that explained it in a straight forward way. I appreciate how you broke it down.
thanks powercert. i always wondered what the difference was. these videos have taught me so much. im currently studying for the 901 and 902 and the visual representations have really helped me. thanks again.
Guys, your video are just realllyyy awesome, I'm a technician on computers and I can't barely explain things like these as perfect as yours to my customer, which basically have low knowledge of computer technologies, a KUDOS to you guys.
Wow. You explained this technology very well. As an IT professional, I am not immune to learning about new concepts and technologies. I was going to purchase the Samsung 970 pro PCIe but went with the Crucial 1TB PCIe to save money. They both have good reviews so I am hoping to have great success with the Crucial. I've decided to subscribe to your channel and am looking forward to your videos. Thank you.
Awesome !! I'm already a great fan of your videos !! They've helped me in understanding important Hardware and Networking concepts much quickly and easily !! Thanks and keep making such awesome educational videos.
So refreshing to see a thorough and straight forward explaination as opposed to the usual UA-camrs who rattle things off like an extreme reality tv show host. Instant sub and bookmark of video. Thank you!
WONDERFUL VIDEO! I'm an Old Dog and was wondering what the heck was up with all these new M.2 drives. Now I'm with the program! Very simply put, straight forward, I can now regurgitate that I learned here and not sound like I'm from last century! I guess you can teach Old Dogs new tricks!
Love your channel, you make everything so easy to understand when you explain and use simple animation. Wish you was my teacher back when I was in school. Keep up the excellent work and learn us how stuffs works.
Dude you are just Brilliant! I want to meet you and thank you for educating me everyday. I’ve watched the RAM video almost 10 times. I want to know how to explain technology exactly like you do! You are a MASTER! Thank you soooo soooo much! When I pass my A+ ... I will have you to thank for sure !
5 years later, I can't believe how dirt cheap 2 Tb m.2 drives have become. It's like they are one their way out to make room for the next big storage technology
Glad to see you recommend the M.2 I had my eyes on. Though I'm waiting for it to come out in the 2TB model (April 2019?) I would have like for you to add some info on issues that some mobos seem to have where you have to "decide" which PCIe M.2 adapter to use - as they share the bus with one of the PCIe expansion slots (apparently my Asus Z170 has this issue).
@fukthegoog You could, but the price per GB means it's not a great option for most people. A common reason to do it is that you want a really fast drive to work with large data sets or for video editing. For most people application and OS on a SATA SSD and an HDD for bulk storage tends to provide a good experience at a relatively cheap price.
Accidentally this video came in my recommendation today while I'm searching how to build a PC 4days ago due to UA-cam algorithm. For past few weeks i got so many doubts and i was not clear how to build a PC. Your content was very clear that i have no doubts. Please do keep up your work and thanks a lot for your valuable videos. -From India 🇮🇳
I just got an NVMe disk (Samsung 970 EVO SSD), and used an adapter to enclose it, and plug it into a PCIe slot. Windows could see the disk after it was formatted. However, my BIOS did not allow me to boot from it, despite installing Windows 10 on it. There are a number of BIOS mods, or custom UEFI boot modification that can get it to work. However, with the adapter I was only getting 1,800 MB/s instead of advertised 3,500 MB/s. So, it's clear that my motherboard is limiting the speed due to a bottleneck. In the end I just determined it was better to upgrade to a motherboard with a native M.2 slot.
Here is the M.2 NVMe SSD that I recommend (affiliate) amzn.to/2VO7E1G
Friend amazing video, lowed the graphics subbed. I have a Samsung 970Pro 1 TB but its on a PCIe Gen2x2 M.2 Slot.
So on CrystalDiskMark 6.02 Benchmark software am only getting
Seq Q32T1 READ: 847.4 MB/s WRITE: 792.9 MB/s after optimization with Samsung Magician! Its 1/3 of what is capable!

That's the one I have in my new build from last weekend. So far so good.. especially with the Magician software installed.
Hello , which motherboard would you recommend to go with the M.2 NVMe and i7 8700 processor ?
Jeezus, thank you for this informative video! And even the list is spot on. Hope you release more vids because the animations and explanations are very professional and to the point, thanks!!
Great video i dont know much about computers but this made such clear sense to me. Ill make sure i dont go and get one of the slower ones
Dude, videos like this make me wish UA-cam still had a star rating system, this is a 5 stars content
doooooood totally forgout about that
UA-cam had star ratings? Didn't know that
This is the day i found out UA-cam had a star rating.. damn guess 2011 was too late
MrVendetta420 that’s some 2000’s shit
I never really used UA-cam way back then, but I do remember it having star ratings whenever I saw it. I forgot about it all this time
This is the best video that explains the differences between drive technologies on UA-cam.
Thank you.
But, based on some videos of loading times of some games, the difference between ssd and m.2 is only 10%.
@@MilanSerbia14 yes.. last year i upgraded my old samsung 830 series to a 1 tb 970 pro and 2x 1 tb 860 evo in raid 0..
the os is ofc on the 970.. even tho my 830 didn't even fully max out the sata speeds possible and only did like something in the 400ish read and 300ish write i have to say the jump from hdd to the 830 was far more noticeable in terms of speed (boot, app starts, etc.) than going to the 970.. but that is because in day to day use we don't really utilize the speeds that often really.. iops are really more important for a os drive than sequential read/write speeds.. because an os in use usually doesn't write or read large chunks of data at once but tiny bits of data is read and written again and again..
i think what makes the difference is latency for how snappy a drive feels and not raw read/write speeds and normal sata ssds have low latency anyways.. yes there is certain tasks where m.2 ssds really shine but usually it's really hard to see any advantage over the sata drives while using a pc.. it's more like a second here a second there.. another thing is that we can only really utilize reads because writes well.. as long as you write something from ram okay.. but else there is nothing in my pc that reads fast enough to max out the 970's over 2700 mb/s write speeds.. my 860 raid gives me at least 1200 read and 1050 write.. so i would need 2 more to get close to what the 970 can do..
you'd really need a lot of sata ssds in a raid config or another m.2 drive were you constantly copy data from one to the other to utilize that sequential speeds..

I answered and said, "If I have found favor in thy sight, O Lord, show this also to thy servant: whether after death, as soon as every one of us yields up his soul, we shall be kept in rest until those times come when thou wilt renew the creation, or whether we shall be tormented at once?" 76 He answered me and said, "I will show you that also, but do not be associated with those who have shown scorn, nor number yourself among those who are tormented. 77 For you have a treasure of works laid up with the Most High; but it will not be shown to you until the last times.
78 Now, concerning death, the teaching is: When the decisive decree has gone forth from the Most High that a man shall die, as the spirit leaves the body to return again to him who gave it, first of all it adores the glory of the Most High. 79 And if it is one of those who have shown scorn and have not kept the way of the Most High, and who have despised his law, and who have hated those who fear the Most High -- 80 such spirits shall not enter into habitations, but shall immediately wander about in torments, ever grieving and sad, in seven ways.
81 The first way, because they have scorned the law of the Most High. 82 The second way, because they cannot now make a good repentance that they may live. 83 The third way, they shall see the reward laid up for those who have trusted the covenants of the Most High. 84 The fourth way, they shall consider the torment laid up for themselves in the last days. 85 The fifth way, they shall see how the habitations of the others are guarded by angels in profound quiet. 86 The sixth way, they shall see how some of them will pass over into torments. 87 The seventh way, which is worse than all the ways that have been mentioned, because they shall utterly waste away in confusion and be consumed with shame, and shall wither with fear at seeing the glory of the Most High before whom they sinned while they were alive, and before whom they are to be judged in the last times.
88 "Now this is the order of those who have kept the ways of the Most High, when they shall be separated from their mortal body. 89 During the time that they lived in it, they laboriously served the Most High, and withstood danger every hour, that they might keep the law of the Lawgiver perfectly. 90 Therefore this is the teaching concerning them: 91 First of all, they shall see with great joy the glory of him who receives them, for they shall have rest in seven orders.
92 The first order, because they have striven with great effort to overcome the evil thought which was formed with them, that it might not lead them astray from life into death. 93 The second order, because they see the perplexity in which the souls of the unrighteous wander, and the punishment that awaits them. 94 The third order, they see the witness which he who formed them bears concerning them, that while they were alive they kept the law which was given them in trust. 95 The fourth order, they understand the rest which they now enjoy, being gathered into their chambers and guarded by angels in profound quiet, and the glory which awaits them in the last days. 96 The fifth order, they rejoice that they have now escaped what is corruptible, and shall inherit what is to come;
and besides they see the straits and toil from which they have been delivered, and the spacious liberty which they are to receive and enjoy in immortality. 97 The sixth order, when it is shown to them how their face is to shine like the sun, and how they are to be made like the light of the stars, being incorruptible from then on. 98 The seventh order, which is greater than all that have been mentioned, because they shall rejoice with boldness, and shall be confident without confusion, and shall be glad without fear, for they hasten to behold the face of him whom they served in life and from whom they are to receive their reward when glorified.
99 This is the order of the souls of the righteous, as henceforth is announced; and the aforesaid are the ways of torment which those who would not give heed shall suffer hereafter." 100 I answered and said, "Will time therefore be given to the souls, after they have been separated from the bodies, to see what you have described to me?" 101 He said to me, "They shall have freedom for seven days, so that during these seven days they may see the things of which you have been told, and afterwards they shall be gathered in their habitations."
102 I answered and said, "If I have found favor in thy sight, show further to me, thy servant, whether on the day of judgment the righteous will be able to intercede for the unrighteous or to entreat the Most High for them, 103 fathers for sons or sons for parents, brothers for brothers, relatives for their kinsmen, or friends for those who are most dear." 104 He answered me and said, "Since you have found favor in my sight, I will show you this also. The day of judgment is decisive and displays to all the seal of truth. Just as now a father does not send his son, or a son his father, or a master his servant, or a friend his dearest friend, to be ill or sleep or eat or be healed in his stead, 105 so no one shall ever pray for another on that day, neither shall any one lay a burden on another; for then every one shall bear his own righteousness and unrighteousness." .....2 Esdras 7:75

Much less confusing than the Linus Tech Tips video. Thanks!
Go to PowerCert to learn, go to Linus Tech Tips for hardware porn.
agree
that's my thought right now.
Linus is a dick
Lol Linus. If you are watching that guy for technical info you are in trouble .
First of all I want to congratulate and thank you for this video. This video is by far the most illuminating and most clear video I have ever watched on youtube these days about clearing what M.2 NVMe and what it is NOT! Having watched at least a dozen videos on the issue, it is only this video which cleared out everything that was under the wraps in my mind. I think the powerful sides of this video are: 1) perfect animations 2) quite clear and slow description of things (many videos on youtube do not understand they are explaining the material i) to non-technical people ii) to technical people but who do not have much expertise in the area iii)to people whose mother tongue is not English) 3) sufficient information (not too much, not too less) 4) and just the technical information well balanced without any babbling, silly jokes or stupid phrases appearing every now and then- once again thanks and keep up the good work.
It's so rare to find a video made exactly for the kind of conundrum you have, this is one of the videos I will remember for years and years!
As most of the comments are suggesting, the effort you have put into simple explanations in the video is simply brilliant. Well done and thank you for the great effort. 👍
After _years_ of using HDDs, I finally just got an SSD, and *wow.* I was expecting a small boost but instead experienced the fasted boot up in my life.
same, it was my hdd only laptop, it's a great management class if you dont upgrade it
Oh yea. I'm slowly upgrading teacher laptops with SSDs at the schools I work at. It has been a massive improvement for them.
@Cosmo Kramer Buy a ticket and take the ride. America is back baby!
I've had an SSD since 2015, but even then I see a huge benefit in speeds with NVMe.
@@scotchwhisky6094 🧢
I am still scratching my head about why would someone dislike this video. Everything said here was absolutely correct and highly informative. And it wasn’t also hypothetical and was presented with detailed data facts. Some people hit the dislike button just for the sake of it.
so do i need an ssd or a hard drive for storage besides ddr4 ram?
Keptonrae Pingmi i now do got everything set up was completely clue less at the time LOL
I searched everywhere in internet to explain in simple terms. Nothing beats your video. Simple to the point.
Thank you.
Dude you have the BEST VIDEOS I have ever seen on any social media platform. I was thinking today while watching people just talking using no graphics to show us what they are talking about and I hate listening to people on a video and all we see them do is talk with just their MOUTH FACE and no graphics.
Your video is well done. It is informative, interesting, and easy to understand.
I am sure most people appreciate this type of explanation as much as I do.
I have a technical background but I am not impressed when someone throws dozens of acronyms around in an attempt to show intelligence.
It reminds me of the military.
Side note: Someone told me that while he was in the service, he told his boss the same thing every morning. It was this. "Hey Sarge, I'm heading down to HQ for C&D." Sounding official, his boss agreed and knew the trip would take the customary 2 hours.
It ended after 18 months when the Sargent asked "What is C&D ?" Oh, he replied, Coffee and Donuts.
I look forward to watching more of your videos.
G
Thank you :)
I have watched a few of your videos now and find them the most clear and concise videos on tech - ever! Excellent and thank you very much.
Haven’t watched this video yet, but I’m happy just to see you still create UA-cam content. Studying your latest CompTIA A+ video at the moment & love it. Exam scheduled for August 30th. Thank you.
Thanks :)
How much time you been studying for the exam bro?
Francisco Santos Sad to say, but I’ve been studying for probably 5-6 months. Due to bouncing around from different study materials, while also trying to figure out the best way for ME to learn caused a major delay in achieving the cert.
@@PMPHUSTLE - Good luck on exam
Everyone buying an M.2 SSD should take careful note of 6:00 as almost everyone I know of still gets confused what nvme and sata is. Thank you for helping me, too!
Late to this party but thank you, this is just what I needed. I haven't built a bare bones system in a while (OK, a decade) and this resolved so many SSD questions that I had. As an old geek I really like to know why things go together the way they do and you have a wonderfully concise way of explaining things.
This is way better than Linus Tech videos. Kudos!
When actual engineer do explanation
@@kuramarosetta8193 so true, I was wondering why I didn't felt good watching his videos
Probably because Linus is usually pretty clueless, his minions are continually correcting him.. It's difficult for someone to explain concepts which they themselves barely grasp...
Linus is more of a salesman than an engineer. This is why.
Linus Tech is overrated!
Excellent technical information and I'm astounded by the art and production of this video. Engaging and informative. Fantastic video.
Thank you. :)
Probably the best video on any computer subject that I have ever seen.
This is the kind of special channel you hope would exist when you think of "UA-cam" as a whole. This is the very definition of looking up helping and finding it when you need it in a simple easy to digest format.
Woooooooooooowwww! Was searching internet for a while about all this buzz regarding m.2 and nvme. This is by far the MOST eloborated and best explaination I found. Now I know, thank you so much! Big time
If my Teachers were this good at explaining things, better part of my life would have been easier is an understatement.
Oh, Hell Yeah!
WoW!!
This must be the 1st & only video about different ssd's worth a 👏!!
Very well explained
I can't believe I really *SLEPT* on this these storage form factors for *YEARS* now.
I've seen these on Amazon, I thought they were some kind of laptop memory never reading descriptions.
2017, My Son bought Me a Dell 5600 series, only opening it to add more memory and a 2nd hard disk drive. I didn't pay attention too much at the MotherBoard.
End of 2020, both My houses caught fire due to vacant house in between being set on fire. Lots of fire/water damage and huge losses of many things.
My Dell didn't get damaged at all other than debris being inside it.
I finally after 2 years decided to work on it to see if it was still functional, it is and using it now.
So, while vacuuming it out and wiping inside with alcohol, I noticed 2 slots for these types of drives marked *_NVMe & M.2 SSD._* Realizing something could be connected to the slots.
I looked it up, slapped My forehead shocked of Me sleeping on these.
I will be purchasing those *_"little sticks of gum."_* They're very cheap now.
Wow that's some series of events. Hope y'all make outta that without too much of a scratch physically or economically
Thank you so much for this video. I've been trying to understand M.2/NVME for ages and haven't been able to find a video that explained it in a straight forward way. I appreciate how you broke it down.
As everybody else here has already commented; great, informative video which provided all of the info I needed and then some.
Amazing
I wasn t getting a grasp of the notion but know everything is just clear you re the best that s gonna help for my tomorrow's exam
1:54 the computer illustration he used brings back memories
thanks powercert. i always wondered what the difference was. these videos have taught me so much. im currently studying for the 901 and 902 and the visual representations have really helped me. thanks again.
me to this is very good
Guys, your video are just realllyyy awesome, I'm a technician on computers and I can't barely explain things like these as perfect as yours to my customer, which basically have low knowledge of computer technologies, a KUDOS to you guys.
I cannot stop watching and learning from your videos.. just awesome and kudos 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Wow. You explained this technology very well. As an IT professional, I am not immune to learning about new concepts and technologies. I was going to purchase the Samsung 970 pro PCIe but went with the Crucial 1TB PCIe to save money. They both have good reviews so I am hoping to have great success with the Crucial. I've decided to subscribe to your channel and am looking forward to your videos. Thank you.
How did that crucial m.2 work 4 u,,, im considering the same
One of the best explanations I've heard and seen so far, keep up the good work!!!!👌👌👌👍👍👍👏👏👏
Awesome !! I'm already a great fan of your videos !! They've helped me in understanding important Hardware and Networking concepts much quickly and easily !! Thanks and keep making such awesome educational videos.
Thank you.
So refreshing to see a thorough and straight forward explaination as opposed to the usual UA-camrs who rattle things off like an extreme reality tv show host. Instant sub and bookmark of video. Thank you!
WONDERFUL VIDEO! I'm an Old Dog and was wondering what the heck was up with all these new M.2 drives. Now I'm with the program! Very simply put, straight forward, I can now regurgitate that I learned here and not sound like I'm from last century! I guess you can teach Old Dogs new tricks!
"In orher word, its fast" that simplified everything
Lmaoo
Love this. Feels like I'm back in class learning something new from the subject that I like. Thanks.
"Or in other words, it's fast" :D:D:D
Amazing video that clarifies a lot, keep it up.
The best way to simplify an idea is to use animation. Thanks for your hard work man.
I am new to all of this at age 67! Thank you for your excellent work! You get a comment and a like!
Super nice and easy video and animation that explains everything in a super easy way. Love it!
Love your channel, you make everything so easy to understand when you explain and use simple animation.
Wish you was my teacher back when I was in school. Keep up the excellent work and learn us how stuffs works.
This video is expressive and without confusion the best. New subscriber here
Thanks :)
One of the best explanations i watched in youtube for years..Bro ..you got the qualities of a teacher.
Dude you are just Brilliant! I want to meet you and thank you for educating me everyday. I’ve watched the RAM video almost 10 times. I want to know how to explain technology exactly like you do! You are a MASTER! Thank you soooo soooo much! When I pass my A+ ... I will have you to thank for sure !
Thank you :)
God bless those animations, how much time did you spent ? Great work ! Thanks for the video
This is gold....pure gold...thank you.
Thanks
This is first ever channel I subscribed without a second thought.
same
Thank you for this video! This is the first one I've seen that actually explains what NVMe MEANS! Incredibly useful!
Your video convinced me to get the NVME and I love it. Can confirm 3500MBps!
Nice....Thank you.
Simply amazing on how you explained everything.
imma business major, so when he said "its fast" it was considerate how he dumbed it down for other people like me
Dude your animations kill me. Great channel and exponentially more informative than other cert channels
Amazing video. This is phenomenal the level of clarity
Very complex topic to explain in a simple way.
Amazing explanation sir. Your video helped me a lot to understand SATA & M.2 properly... Thanks a lot sir..
5 years later, I can't believe how dirt cheap 2 Tb m.2 drives have become. It's like they are one their way out to make room for the next big storage technology
Best Explanation on youtube. Been looking for a proper video to explain the differences and i found it with this.
Glad it was helpful!
Well done. Straight to the point, and no stupid music.
Thank you for that explanation! I'm no longer confused! 👍😎
Thank you so much. Very informative. Your channel really good. Love it.
Thanks.
This was fantastic : a perfect explanation thank you !
straight to the point, informative, good video all around, man.
wow, straight to the point. no random b.s. or obnoxious fillers. great content!
Glad to see you recommend the M.2 I had my eyes on. Though I'm waiting for it to come out in the 2TB model (April 2019?) I would have like for you to add some info on issues that some mobos seem to have where you have to "decide" which PCIe M.2 adapter to use - as they share the bus with one of the PCIe expansion slots (apparently my Asus Z170 has this issue).
Me: Watching using my old solid state drive
Another Me: I'll buy it when its cheap after few more years.
that moment, when he just say "it mean, Its fast" that just what i need after wandering on internet for few hours
"Non volatile memory express". First time i heard what nvme stands for. Every day i learn something new.
Impressive animated video och very good explanation, very educational. Better than most schools.
Realmente muy buen video. Expicación clara y concisa. Además de un inglés perfectamente entendible.
Greetings!
The best video explaining SSD.
Thanks
Big Fan Here! 🤗 Need to create these kinds of animations for different purpose, Kindly suggest which program should I use to get such results?
This is awesome really. My new favorite channel. Really excited about NVMe and CXL protocol :)
Welcome aboard!
By far some of the best explanations youll find on youtube, thanks for the help on my A+
The bast teaching..vary well made video series..thank
Excellent vid, sir. :)
Forgot to say that if your mother don't have M2 interface you an buy an adapter that connects in the PCI Express slot and have M2 interfaces..
Good point.
However depending of the chip-set the bios may not support boot from NVMe. (though some drives include an option ROM that can get around that. )
@fukthegoog
You could, but the price per GB means it's not a great option for most people. A common reason to do it is that you want a really fast drive to work with large data sets or for video editing.
For most people application and OS on a SATA SSD and an HDD for bulk storage tends to provide a good experience at a relatively cheap price.
Awesome content! Best explanation on this I've seen so far.
Thanks a lot for making this video it’s vey informative and helping to extend my mac with more disk space
Accidentally this video came in my recommendation today while I'm searching how to build a PC 4days ago due to UA-cam algorithm. For past few weeks i got so many doubts and i was not clear how to build a PC. Your content was very clear that i have no doubts. Please do keep up your work and thanks a lot for your valuable videos.
-From India 🇮🇳
Wow, just WOW... i`m speechless, from this video i`ve learned the difference between SSD SATA and SSD NVMe M.2 which i didn`t know it... Thank you!
M.2 NVMe SSD
==============
Does it work with BIOS Mode ((Legacy))? Or does it only work with BIOS Mode ((UEFI))?
The short answer is yes, but will require some tinkering.
I just got an NVMe disk (Samsung 970 EVO SSD), and used an adapter to enclose it, and plug it into a PCIe slot. Windows could see the disk after it was formatted. However, my BIOS did not allow me to boot from it, despite installing Windows 10 on it. There are a number of BIOS mods, or custom UEFI boot modification that can get it to work. However, with the adapter I was only getting 1,800 MB/s instead of advertised 3,500 MB/s. So, it's clear that my motherboard is limiting the speed due to a bottleneck. In the end I just determined it was better to upgrade to a motherboard with a native M.2 slot.
Thanks for making this video. I'm so glad that I watch this before buying a new CPU.. This vid really helps a lot!
Incredible quality video, easy to understand
