    Great vid as always Danny! I am currently using a Corsair MP600 1tb as my boot drive. So far I've had zero issues with it and everyone who got one will love them too. I got half way through the video before I realized I had the same drive haha.

Amazing content as usual, keep it up! Also my build is running a 1tb crucial p3, pretty solid ssd for around $35. That is what most of my flip builds get as well!

    Boot drive - 1 TB Kingston A2000 Nvme. For storage I have a 2TB WD SN350 Green Nvme & just picked up another storage drive - 2TB Intel 670p Nvme from Newegg during their Fantastech sale. Great video Danny & Corsair. Congrats to all the recipients. :)

  • @theBoomerDoomer
    @theBoomerDoomer Před 10 měsíci

    I love seeing content like this. As for my storage setup, I guess I'm sort of "in the middle of the pack" compared to the folks in the video - I have 2 1TB NVMe drives (one Gen4 for boot, one Gen3 for extra storage) and a 1TB SATA SSD for backups and archival storage.

    • @mr.guillotine3766
      @mr.guillotine3766 Před 10 měsíci

      Also, in my rig, I have a fairly low budget build (it was sort of mid tier in 2020 when I got it and I got it built by a friend like a month before prices just went insane!) so it's got like four 1TB HDD and one 500 gig SATA as the boot...really wanting to upgrade to an nvme while prices are low, but man, I'm on disability and things are just rough with all the inflation (price gouging) on everything else...but might just put some more RAM, a 2TB nvme, and maybe something else on the credit card before the prices get bad again. I'll kick myself if I don't upgrade things while the prices are good and then have something fail and have no choice in the future.

I keep telling the gf I'm going to microcenter one day and I might not come back I'll just live there till I master tube bending.. and I never built a full water cooled system ..
