    Ordered an SSD, it didn't work, checked the connections twice and then thrice. Nothing was working. After an hour, I decided to watch this video as it was taunting me on the Google search page.
    Of all things, for it to have been because the other side of the cable wasn't plugged in... 😂 It works now, and you helped with confusion of initializing and allocating, you get a thumbs up and a sincere heart felt thank you 😊

    Super simple to follow on. I just completed building my very 1st PC in over a decade since my last one. Figuring out how to add an additional SSD through your video really saved the amount of time trying to understand. Cheers!

    Thanks Zach It was definitely helful. You're awesome bro!
    Something that would be even more helpful would be if you could please do a similar video on this channel showing us steps in how exactly you setup your custom MSIAfterburner for the main channel videos.
    Also, it looks like on the desktop in this video, you have Afterburner and then a separate instance of it. I'm assuming you simply click that seperate instance marked 'setup' and it automatically sets it to how you want it so you don't have to do it manually set it up every single video.
    I really would appreciate seeing how you do that as well. thanks!
    peace.
