What a great video... just did the 4tb upgrade w/ the heatsink, got the screen protector and got the enclosure. Super easy and now I don't care that my SD card reader broke again for the 3rd time... :(

[@AlmightyyCres]

What heat sink did you get?

[@juanparedes001]

It seems to me that the cause of the drop in speed in transfers or writing data to the SSD is caused by the high temperature. If you notice when you put in the adapter for the larger SSD, it is mounted almost on the processor.

[@davindersaini5631]

Hi, have you faced any issues after the SSD update? i have read somewhere that right angle adapter may introduce some problems with stability

[@redcrimson1028]

Great video, dude. I like how you talked about other accessories to purchase, that was very helpful. I do think Asus accessories are overly expensive, though. I think the Rikiri controller isn't worth the price it goes for. Coll controller, though.

[@lonelygoner2012]

the wireless earbuds have an audio delay of about 1-2 secs. no way around it. all updates installed still audio delay. just fyi

[@JaysTechNGadgetReviews]

Gulikit King Kong Pro Max 3 has been my controller of choice for my Ally and I havent looked back since!

[@christophercreger557]

i would recommend if you have a dock using Ethernet over WiFi as i takes less time to install via asus cloud recovery

[@Nizon]

the white jsaux case turns yellow really fast

[@Schnitz808]

Dope video bro! How many times does the basues battery pack charge the ally?

[@digitalmaus]

Much appreciated. 🙏 thank you

[@LeNerdarto]

awesome man! just what i needet, thx a lot, great vid!

[@joshuagonzalez1148]

Do I need a heat sink if I use the rog or saber enclosure?

[@digitalmaus]

The Rog comes with thermal pads

[@FeuerregengeistLP]

very nice .. but Does this introduce heat issues ? ^^

[@metathanatos1]

@@FeuerregengeistLP heat is never an issue, since the battery will break first before the z1 chip even deteriorate beyond help

[@hussainal-naamani6838]

Fantastic video, which kickstand are you using?

[@lydon2006]

Has anyone done the 4tb upgrade if so any issues?

[@chromeheartsonme]

I did it, it lowers write speeds a little bit, but that’s just because of heat, if you get some thermal pads and put them ontop of your ssd it won’t matter much.

[@Sarthak18819]

I am thinking to buy Rog ally... Should I buy it?

[@digitalmaus]

What is holding you back?

[@Cadillacfrank94]

Yes! It's incredible I don't have the need for laptop/desktop anymore since my work provides me my work laptop. Check one out I love it.

[@LostMethods]

No. Especially if you play AAA games.

[@johnparty3786]

If you are going to play AAA titles, I recommend set everything at low except medium texture, 720p with RSR enabled, it's gonna be great looking with around 60 FPS at 15W TDP. I'm not recommend playing while charging cause it can corrupt your SD card (happened to me and I had to format it on other computer then it worked normally). Battery is around 1h30 mins if you're playing at 15W, 3 hour at 10W, I'm not recommend 25W as it can cause damage to SD card and drain battery to under 1 hour. Finally, this device has great software and screen/speaker quality, but has some issue about heat that you should take care on your own. If you can accept then buy it, there's not thing like having a PC on your palm. Or you can wait couple years to have new device line with better spec and longer battery life, less issues.

[@MsSplashIt]

Yes get. You won’t regret. Got my for Xmas and very happy with it

[@dizznation9754]

great video my guy

[@49ersfaithful209]

Hey man great video, I just got my son a z1 extreme and I wanted to upgrade the SSD, I’m new to this tech stuff so I want to make sure with you first since you are a pro on this, would a “crucial p3 PLUS 4tb” work also? I know it’s plus that’s what threw me off. If so I’m gonna save up a get it for my son. Thank you in advance Ps if you have any for sale let me know also please. Thank you

[@digitalmaus]

Hello, I'm not a pro but I appreciate you watching and your kind words. The Crucial - P3 Plus 4TB SSD should work just fine with the adapter. In terms of form factor you are looking for a M.2 2280.

[@CrislynV]

Did you have an issue with the back paddles no longer pressing down after this install? Only 1/2 of them are pressing down, not sure what happened as they were working before

[@Xtrem5555]

If I just unplug the original ssd from de Rog Ally and plug the new one, is windows going to reinstall himself ? Or do I have to install Windows from usb or something ?

[@Zagreus11]

It will reinstall the windows. Its super easy. All you need is high internet speed to download.

[@digitalmaus]

You can use Asus Cloud Recovery. Asus put out a guide here: rog.asus.com/articles/guides/how-to-upgrade-the-ssd-and-reinstall-windows-on-your-rog-ally/

How did the ssd hold up in the long term

[@digitalmaus]

I haven’t used it much since i got the Rog Ally X. But it still works just fine.

Everything u do is great except the letter s

[@digitalmaus]

LOL. Thank you?

[@brandonr3115]

Hi there, did you have to mod the oem case/backplate to get everything to fit? Or did you not test with the oem backplate

[@digitalmaus]

Hello, I did not have to mod the OEM backplate to fit the 2280 SSD.

[@iomis2001]

Bluetooth with gaming is a big no.

[@antionegarner8195]

Can u play gta like on pc

Yes bro I watched so much video about it and got exited

Yes sir! You can even mod games ..

Any issues with having an ssd adapter for the m.2? I already got a 2tb ssd but never heard of an adapter for an m.2 b4..

[@digitalmaus]

No issues so far. I’ll post in the community tab if I do.

[@Varnage]

only thing i heard on issues that common on reddit, is that vents on backplate start to crack after awhile from pressure. They say you have to cut certain spot on backplate to keep pressurre off.

[@RAIMUNDOGOMESDACOSTANETO]

​@@Varnage but this for Original backplate, the Jsaux doesn't have this problem, but the RGB plate make some pressure but not enough to make troubles

[@adikurnia5364]

Avoid turbo if you use adapter…. Broke my ssd after 2 weeks, thermal problem, the ssd no longer detected, just regard me as your guinea pig

[@mosesdogo8183]

@@adikurnia5364 Why have an Asus RoG Ally if you can't use it to its full potential? It doesn't make much sense.

[@CEEEEEEEEENA]

Bro , can you use nvme ssd closure , outside like an external hard drive and play games from there on the ally ?

[@digitalmaus]

I know you can maintain your Steam library on a external drive www.techradar.com/how-to/how-to-run-your-steam-library-from-an-external-drive
