Your videos are amazing and you don't waste people's time you on point I always thought hp was better then acer so ausus is great too. Dell is by far the best just bitlocker

Love the thumbnail ✨

How did the laptop work with you quickly and reach the main menu? Is there a way for this access speed?

[@dr.matthewmartinjr.5609]

Quick question. Please , which one do you recommend a Acer 17 inch or a HP 17 inch budget laptop?

[@CadillacComputerCenter]

I've always preferred Acer, over HP.

@@CadillacComputerCenter Because I saw this at Wal-Mart. Sponsored Acer Acer Aspire 3 A317-53 - Intel Core i3 1115G4 / 3 GHz - Win 11 Home - UHD Graphics - 8 GB RAM - 256 GB SSD - 17.3" 1600 x 900 (HD+) - Wi-Fi 5 - pure silver - kbd: US Intl (3.7) $409.99. Would it be a best buy? Or in other words. Should I get it?

Just curious, i have a Aspire a315-23 that comes with a 1tb hdd and i'm planning to swap to a m2 ssd next year but on the acer website it says the nvme supports only 512gb and the sata only 1tb. What happens if i put a 1tb nvme ssd? Will it work or won't be recognized? Or should i go with a 1tb sata ssd instead?

[@CadillacComputerCenter]

Hi. I see this all the time with manufacturers. This usually means they only tested up to 512GB. A 1TB m.2 should work fine. I've done it many times in a situation like this. Dale.

Hi Dale, love your channel. I watched this video and decided it was simple enough for me to try. I installed the HDD and everything went good. The drive (500gb SATA) works well. However, since the install I get this weird text whenever I boot the laptop (Acer Aspire 5 running LINUX Mint 21.1): ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [ 11.275251] ata2: softreset failed (device not ready) [ 31.275251] ata2: softreset failed (device not ready) [ 41.275251] ata2: softreset failed (device not ready) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ But then it boots into the desktop as normal and everything works fine. Have you ever encountered this? Can you tell me what it means? Thanks.

[@johnron61]

Never mind. Turns out I didn't fully seat the SSD ribbon cable into the connector.
