twenty seconds into the video and just one tip: don't wear a blousse with a pattern like this because it glitches out the camera. This is an old presentator mistake.
I think the camera needs a lowpass filter.
12Music72 i know this is 1 month ago but AFAIK its because of video compression by youtube
That is indeed true, but the camera does also matter, just not as much if you just have a decent camera.
IcemanZ Oh well. A very helpful video though!
Changed my HDD to SSD about a year ago and been very happy about it.
Never knew about M.2 SSD and it was very informative. Thank you!
Concise, but covers multiple scenario of interest to me. Great video!
It goes through a short presentation, then moves to scenarios a normal user might want to consider. Great to see the issue explored from both angles.
JJ nails it ! Love it ! Well done, Asus !
What GPU are you using to render the shirt?
lmao
Actually intricate patterns are hard for high end cameras to capture without weird distortion.
The distortion is called vignetting.
Actually, it's called moiré.
Nope wrong again, It's called it looks cool
love you jj thank you for your precise, concise, and incisive overview of these products.
does the asus z97-deluxe supports the full 32gbps of the samsung sm951?
Thank you for explaining the various types of SSDs. Very good job. Clear, concise and comfortable presentation.
i was confused till i watched this video, i became more confused actually
Yeah, this guy reeks of trained to speak methodically but never hears how unclear he is
I'm using a punch card based eniac system. Would see a difference switching to SSD?
Yes SSD are alot smaller!
What! No love for Papyrus scrolls?!?
these legacy based storage comments are mildly amusing but the oral histories passed down by the elders is by far the superior anecdote
i love this guy and the kind of tone these asus videos carry just sharp and informative i really appreciate these videos
Great video! this has been so frustrating for me the last few days as I'm working on planning a new gaming build on one of the newer Asus boards for Skylake, this was extremely helpful in understanding SSD which I have never used before.
I am still using a good old WD mech drive, it's driving me nuts! So this video was very helpful in my search for a next step solution.
Mark Paterson SATA SSD for life.. brought a 240GB kingston one which was one of the cheapest and reliable brand i found......and now my pc user experience is in a whole another level. Previously the system partition was on a WD blue drive..that suckkssss!
Great video and reference, one of the best videos that I have seen even now at 2020
This was extremely informative, thank you!
Very helpful, would have been nice to see you install all the variations on the same motherboard!
This is so informative and the delivery is so professional.
JJ explains everything so good.
+PSguy Mentalist He could easyly speak for hours about difference between one thing and another...
Well*
nnjsmsk
hey thats me!
I feel smarter everytime i finish a video with JJ in it. He explains everything so clear and concise... good job... now i need $1000 to get that intel 750 pcie nvme ssd...
Hi. I've been trying to figure this one out for a few days:
Parts: z170 deluxe, sata hdd, and waiting on Intel 600p m.2
I want to use the hdd as storage and run the OS off the 600p. Do I used the onboard m.2 connector for the Intel 600p? Or should I be using the m.2 on the PCIe expansion card.
Hi JJ, great video. I now have SSDs in both my Sata and M.2 slots. However, the M.2 NVMe slot (attached to my smaller drive) is noticeably faster - as you explained this is because Sata was introduced specifically for mechanical HDs. So, I was wondering if it would be possible to somehow plug my larger SSD into the motherboard using the M.2 slot instead of Sata? My laptop is a Lenovo Legion y720. Is there any kind of adapter? Of course this would render my present smaller SSD redundant but I could live with that given that my main drive is much larger capacity. If you have any ideas, I would be very interested. Thanks in advance.
the M.2 SSD share bandwidth with some pcie and sata according to the manual, i wish u explained which ones are disabled directly on the board by point to them or showing us. Not all of us are hardware experts.
JJ!!! Good to see you here.
Holy acronym hell batman!
Way to go JJ Abrahams, I would have been lost 30 seconds in. Great job!
I was waiting for "granular" - you never disappoint JJ.
Thank you for the overview, I can now make an informed decision. :)
Excellent video. A great presenter. Clear and articulate. Very natural.
Perfect video for those who don't know the difference
supprot!
Great explanation, thanks!!
very well explained, i think this is the video that explains the difference and costs the best. thank you very much =)
One of really few really proffessional vids on this topic.
Very useful and informative video, now i have a clear view & know what is best for my use.
Your videos help a lot man thanks!!!
Could you imagine if JJ was sitting with you on a adv build to overclock?:) you can tell he wants to talk so much and get down into the details about every topic. Very knowledgable. I wish he was around for x99 deluxe and other brand x99 usb cold boot issues!
Hi. Im confused.. in the mid section, you said that PCIe based AHCI ssd would be better than PCIe based NVME
But in the end you said that best of the best is PCIe based NVME..
Please clarify..
Well explained. Thanks JJ
love yours video man! you are the best in explained ! becuase of yours explained i was choose asus z170 hero alpha
Am I correct in thinking that the Intel 750 M.2 with interconnect will not be as fast as the PCIe add in card due to most MB's only having a x2 m.2 slot? (X99 boards not included)
Thanks for a great explanation of SSD and NVMe storage
Nice video my good old Asus X51L laptop with windows vista will love the new SATA SSD :-)
AWESOME video, thanks!
Thanks for the info, JJ!
my laptop has M.2 PCIe slot (HP 840 G2 with single notch), is it compatible with M.2 SATA (2 notches)? and will single sided or double sided make any difference in fitting?
brilliant vid jj...well explained..need more of this...would be nice to see the pcie installed and configured..with other ssd on windows...anyway..either way..nice vid..thanks
Very good info thank you so much
Hi.
I bought an ASUS E402ma laptop 32 g memory. When I bought it, several of the reviews said that people had added/replaced the SSD drive with ones of higher memory. But I can't find info on which SSD drives would be best.
Any info you could provide would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Thanks JJ, This helps me tons! - Good job.
Hi I'm really confused with the SSD drives. I would really be thankful if you would help me with this problem.
I own HP 820 G2 and I want to know what choices do I have for an SSD drive and which one provides me with the highest speed regarding to my notebook.
Really good video !
Thank you for the detailed explanation
Hey ASUS, does my motherboard support booting to an NVME PCI-e Drive? (Gryphon Z87)
My xbox one x is having hdd failure terribly.. I've gotten it to work again like 12 times but ends up failing right before it's almost full (was in process of transferring games onto external hdd.) I've never done this stuff or know much but which type of ssd/brand should I buy to replace the 1tb internal hdd with? SATA correct?
Amazing technology i love living in the advanced technology age. Great clear and concise video JJ just what i wanted, Thank you
Hi! Thanks for this very informative video! I have a laptop hdd will it be fine to use in nuc5i5ryh? I am told that it will heat up the system while the box has thermal pad and holes in box for ventilation ,will it be bad for the system?
I've got the Asus Deluxe Z170. Is it a native pcie based m.2 drive? Or should I mount the M.2 onto a Hyper kit module and install it in the PCIe slot?
Very informative, thank you.
Will this make much difference in just a storage drive? I use a PCIe (Samsung Evo pro) for my OS) but wish to install a storage drive on my laptop will an SSD be better than an HDD for just storage?
would u get a crucial mx500 m.2 or crucial p1 ? i feel that besides the speeds, its not necessary to to get an nvme m.2
Thanks for this information JJ!
Am I mad to consider a HyperX Savage 960GB SSD kit over a M.2 Samsung 950 Pro? I know the Samsung will be upt to 3 or 4 times as fast but is it really noticeable? The reason I ask is that I am installing it into an MSI GE72 6QC and the OEM 7200 RPM HDD can be swapped out for the HyperX very easily (on the videos I've seen it takes 15-20 mins!) The Samsung requires a full clean install of Windows 10 and can't migrate all the data from the mechanical drive so I'd have to download everything again. Is the ballache worth it?
I feel like I'm in school, my brain has fallen to sleep!
If your brain has fallen to sleep, then you as a whole are asleep.
the tone is at uniform rate and feels like travelling in a car and slept all the way..
which could be the best SSD for Dell 7460? Should i go for Traditional SSD or M.2 ? will there be any difference in performance between the two?
Thanks J.J. for another great video. Question for my next gaming build. M.2 or PCIe Intel 750. Are they both going to produce the same speeds or is one more favorable than the other. Also on that note, I see many of the newer mobo's on the market that offer the M.2 slot, it seems there's only one M.2 slot. If I wanted to run two Intel 750's. How would that work and will that saturate my PCI slots so much that running dual GPU cards would result in terrible performance. I was planning on using the x99 platform with the intel 8 core processor. Thanks again for your cherished wisdom.
This was actually a big help. Thanks ... and the shirt looks OK with a GTX 1060 card!!
What SSD system does the Asus G752 VY come with, i.e. SATA, M.2, PCle or NVME for the boot up? Many thanks.
Thanks a useful overview.
Thanks for the video
I built my first PC with an ASUS A7V back in 2000. Oh my how far we've come.
Another question. On Amazon, they are selling the Asus Zenbook 14" UX433FA-DH74. But on the Asus website, there is another called UX433FN-DH74. What is the difference between the "FA" and "FN" model?
so the 2.5" sata SSD have different controllers which affect the performance? anybody mind explaining this?
Great video hands down
Which one I should use for acer swift 3 SF315-41 which already has a 1tb hhd, but has a empty ssd slot
I got an Asus k501lx laptop what kind of m.2 should I use? Any recommendations. Thanks
Really good video with all the right information! +1 internets
i'm still confuse with my G752VY 's M.2 slots (SSD or PCIE or NVMe?) Could anyone please tell me some of M.2 brand that will run with it? Thanks
Planning on purchasing a M.2 2260 ssd drive to install Windows and be the boot drive in my HP Elitebook 840 G2 and for the storage drive a 2TB regular hhd and was wondering if having the regular hhd aboard would that slow down the boot time? Thanks appreciate any help!
I need to know how to use a PCIe m.2 card with a 2.5 Sata III, in a Setup or Array!,,,like, Raid 0,,Raid 1,,,or No raid at all!,, and of course a 2-Gig WD HDD for storage!,,, nice job on the description of the different kinds of SSD's!, but must have proper knowledge for use of as I described above!,,,Thanks so much!!!
Hey JJ nice to see you again Very Good explained what is the difference between the different protocols (I have a intel 750 super fast love it)
Greetings PG
Will Windows boot up from a Samsung 970 EVO Plus Series - 250GB PCIe NVMe - M.2 Internal SSD connected thry PCI? Thank You
hello what is the best this M2. or intel ssd 750 I read some review people have problem when they reboot the system?
Great explanation . thanks for this
My motherboard has a M.2 slot with PCIe 2.0x4 up to 20Gbit/s, can it support NVMe SSDs without limiting the performance?
Get Video one of the best I have seen , Question if I am using a X99 MB it has a M.2 connection in it , How do I get the performance using the M.2 combined with a conventional Hard drive for storage ? Is it worth using both or if I am needing more storage stick with the mech. hard drives or is there a way to utilize the SSD for increasing speed in transferring data ? Thank you
I just bought a Asus Rog GL752VW and can't find the right M2 to use for upgrading. All Samsung M2s are not compatible. Need help on purchasing the right manufacturer and size (hopefully 500 gig). Also can I replace the 1TB HHD be replaced with an SSD? I inserted a Seagate SSD and Windows said the drive was too small. Bios did however recognize the SATA drive. Thank you. Anthony
Best for ASUS sabertooth Z87 ? Now in 2020? Mostly for gaming and to futureproof hopefully for years. Thanks in advance
Can someone give me a tutorial link or explain how to properly install an m.2 ssd on a msi ge62? i'm not sure on how to boot from it in bios after the hardware installation. Thank you guys
Great explanation!
I had bought a few of the intel ssd DC s3500 600 gb.. so I can run a couple of them in Raid 0, and running in Raid 0 would improve the read/write output over all??
Can you boot from M.2 SSD if I was to install it to my new ASUS Z170-A Motherboard? I would really like to get rid of my old 2,5" SSD which I use now to boot from.
So , If you plug an M.2 into a PCIE adapter , then it's faster than pluging it into a M.2 socket?
Which brand and type SSD would you recommend for an Alienware 17 R4 laptop?
please help me
How could I know my laptop support M.2 Gen3X4 or Gen3X2?
JJ your shirt is super trippy in this video!
im still confused what is the NVMe really its main uses for my guess its a ssd storage but its connected on PCIe instead of Sata cable? right?
good info. ty
i am very thankful to asus for supporting my core i3 laptop with ssd m.2 port 😍
love you JJ you need to make more videos on all your upcoming products and alot more Tech videos please
I love the corporate theme of this video.
What an educational video!
Which SSD can I add/replace in Asus GL553Vd?
can I add Samsung Evo 850 or 950 pro?
