and the harddrive is this random western one cause i was going through them 1 every year-2 for reasons but i think its time to buy something "higher quality" since im not making mistakes that could hurt my harddrive anymore \


Would be nice to load maps faster on Path of Exile


Only use HDD's for storage imo.
Put you operating system on a 250gb ssd, put all your games on a seperate M.2 NVMe.
Separate read/write work loads for better performance.

M.2's dont have wires.
Just make sure your motherboard has NVMe slot for it.


There's 2 types, SATA and NVMe, you will need to match the slot.

well i got this harddrive that looks way newer , but was 30$ cheaper then the western ones i used to use...

I know i killed this one trying to record in a bad format though, so hopefully this one is better if not well i needed to replace it anyways

thanks for the comments

Is the computer plugged in?


Have you tried turning it off and back on?
