What are my…

Dell Lattitude 7420 eating SSDs for every meal
I have an older Dell Lattitude 7420 as my work laptop that I use for custom integration programming. This may sound crazy but I love this computer. I like the size, feel of the keyboard, weight, and its seemingly solid feel. About 10 months ago on site, the laptop crashed for the first time ever, it rebooted but it was…

Computer won't boot--monitor on but no POST or anything
Hi all! A couple of days ago, I turned on my PC to play some Hitman as one does. I recently upgraded my PC and it was working great previously. When I turned my PC on, it put me in the UEFI settings screen. Impatiently, I decided to discard changes and exit. When that didn't work, I just went to saving and restarting. It…

Is an OS SSD Cloned to another SSD through a USB adapter still bootable?
Some time ago, I bought a Sabrent USB adapter for 2.5 inch SSDs (which came with its own Acronis version for it) to easily connect any SSDs and potentially make future clone backups of my OS drive much easier so I don't have to jumble around SATA cables when making backups. I have an SSD that is the same size as the one…

Unable to use AMD EXPO
Hello world. I decided to build a 2nd computer based off of AMD's new offerings. I went with a 7950X3D, 7900XT, and 32GB of EXPO certified Corsair memory all on a AsRock Phantom Gaming B650E PG-ITX motherboard. As a standard practice, I always update my BIOS. Unfortunately, I am not able to hit my memory speeds of 6000MHz…

Product Suggestion: Sim Racing Cable Management Clips
Since MC stocks aluminum slotted profile sim rigs, it'd be an easy upsell to stock cable management clips as well. Sim Lab sells their own, for example (sorry, can't post links yet, but google "sim lab cable management" and they're the first link). Ordering them directly would be prohibitive; the shipping cost is far more…

My WD black P10 gaming hard drive making weird noises?
I bought my P10 gaming drive in May. The hard drive started making weird noises a week after I took it on a trip. It was snug in my bag, and I wasn't rough with my bag. The USB connector seems a bit bent on the USB-A side Here is a video of the noise https://streamable.com/u9ra76

First, let me start off by saying I've never been this type of person. I don't leave reviews and I'm not one to be critical but this has me very upset. I went into microcenter about 2 months ago to get my CPU looked at. It was running funny and acting off, so i figured i get it looked at. I did build this CPU myself and…

Where are the internal SATA data ports on the Powerspec G472?
I'm trying to install an internal 2.5" SSD in my new G472.
