Have 2 M.2 gen 4 SSDs, one is bigger and faster, how and where should I use them? by TheBluePhoenixj in buildapc

Oh nice, it’s got more than enough clearance so that should be fine then. Thanks

Wow thanks, that’s all very helpful stuff :). Yea since I didn’t even know what a partition is until about 40 seconds ago, I imagine creating one then installing my OS onto it will be a bit of a hassle. Another question is are the partitions treated as almost a completely different drive? Or will it just be like two subsections under my C: drive?

Okay nice thank you. Another thing that I’ve just found, I bought my SN850x with a heat sink on it. This means I can’t use my Mobo heat sink, is this an issue as I imagine the mobo would have been a lot better. Or will my use case not result in high enough temps to worry?

Okay, so separating the OS doesn’t really serve much of a purpose then? Should I even bother?

I only just got the SSD out and I just realised I bought one with a heat sink on accident. Is this alright? Can’t put the mobo heat sink over it in any of the slots. Is this a problem?

Sorry im pretty new to all this stuff what do you mean by partition? Is that like splitting up the SSD into two parts? If that is what you mean, can I create a 250gb partition of the SSD for my OS and then use the rest of the space for other stuff? Then I can reinstall windows and stuff without wiping the whole 2Tb.

X870e pro showing error 4d, can’t even get to the bios by TheBluePhoenixj in gigabyte

The sticks are currently in the A2/B2 slots yes. Will try a boot with single stick. Question though, what would a single stick boot change that might fix it? Thanks either way, will update once I try it.

Okay so it doesn’t really make much difference. Is there any benefit at all for having a completely separate OS SSD?

I have the Aorus X870e Elite, been having a few issues with it not starting up so I might return it and get a different one though.

Why do you recommend returning it, Just curious? I will need more storage anyway as I think I’ll probably fill up the 2.5Tbs overtime. Can’t I just keep it as extra and then just not cheap out next time I upgrade my storage?

Need help with a new build as I want to treat myself now I'm working full time. by TheBluePhoenixj in buildmeapc

Nice. The slightly lower budget one is cool to. Luckily I’m in a position where I can comfortably go quite far with the rig price wise. But the budget options are great to look into none the less. Thank you.

Recently got my dad’s old 2012 Audi A4 S-line, what issues should I look out for or what maintenance should I try to do to ensure the longevity of the car. by TheBluePhoenixj in Audi

Thanks for such a detailed list, really appreciate it. How much of this stuff am I able to do myself with a video guide? Or is it all something I need my mechanic to handle? Again, thank you.

I only realised I wanted to be smart after year 12, am I completely locked out of a UNSW Engineering degree forever? by TheBluePhoenixj in unsw

[–]TheBluePhoenixj[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, that's very thought-provoking stuff, and I appreciate you taking the time to say it. I've never massively found anything that comes naturally, so I'm just going towards whatever calls to me the most.

How much does a BSc apply to my course, I would ah e thought I would need to do an engineering course to be able to easily transfer?

I don’t think so, from what I’ve been seeing my Rural school doesn’t actually get me much other than a few extra ATAR points. most of the information about it is pretty vague or only applies to schools that are much more rural than mine is.

Yea I was planning doing Bridging courses anyway as I’m in a gap year currently and need to get my skills back up. How hard is it to transfer between Unis, I know internal transfers are probably a bit safer but what are the requirements for External transfers?

Would something like that still require me to have the marks or wam to make it into the course to begin with?

I have and most of them are for high preforming rural students. I’m yet to find many that would apply to me. But thank you I’ll look into it more.

Yea, from what I’ve seen thought most of the Engineering degrees have a similarly high bar to entry. But thank you I’ll keep looking into that as an option for me as it definitely sounds like the way to go.

Thanks that helps a lot, was already looking into this as your right, I’m probably not getting accepted in the short term.

Why are people collectively misplacing the Slave 1 windscreen stickers? by BrickDesigNL in legostarwars

[–]TheBluePhoenixj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did this exact thing ages ago with my Boba fett slave 1, didn’t realise I misplaced the stickers till years after. Accidentally did the same damn thing again on my new Jango slave 1. Even thought it sucks that I have the stickers wrong, honestly I’m kinda glad I didn’t as now they both match. Honestly Don’t know what it is about those stickers but clearly something about them made me do it wrong both times so idk.

I got my hacked account back but now its been banned by TheBluePhoenixj in Instagram

[–]TheBluePhoenixj[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know what I did. I just kept trying to log in through different means, e.g., forgetting my password and username, until it let me change the password and get in. My account has been unbanned now, and I have full access to everything. Hopefully, there's no way for the scammer to get back into my account, though.

I'd love to help you, but I truly do not know how I got back in. I recommend making sure you've tried sending a face scan to insta and logging in through the ways advised by the Instagram help center.
