Thank you so much for explaining everything yo do, most people dont even explain

[@Shakeem]

your welcome and it was hard for me because your right and i had to just figure it out

[@thewinky01]

Good on you for upgrading, I’ve got pretty much the same setup. Great power to cost! That big drive you installed the SSD under is actually the DVD drive, the HDD is under the power supply. If you pop the front cover off, there’s special screws for mounting new drives. With the sata ports, the top dark blue is the fastest port, so I’d recommend plugging your SSD into it. The HDD into the next, then the DVD into the white one next to the black. 👍

[@Shakeem]

thank you. this why i love the comments i always learn so much lol

[@thewinky01]

Keemborghini And thanks for your videos too :)

[@victorreynaga1805]

I cloned my SSD from my hhd, but the computer won't boot up from the ssd. I disconnected my HDD and connect my SSD to the main dark blue port...but it won't boot up....did it instantly boot for you guys?

[@carbullzone953]

I have this same PC to this day in my home lab. Another great thing to do is to remove the front panel (face plate) as well as that black shield housing the fan and vacuum those areas. If you've never done this, you might puke when you see the thickness of the dust. Mine looked like wall insulation it was so thick. I feel like the computer runs much faster since I've done that. Although as per your video, I will add an SSD to run things faster while keeping my original HDD (located under the power supply) as storage. I actually game on a PS4 and added an SSD there and the performance is light-years better, so I'm looking forward to this upgrade. Great video. Cheers!

nice bro, cant wait for you to upgrade it

[@jinotokieda]

Hey, Keem nice video! Just curious though, when you installed Windows on your SSD, did you need to reinstall your games again on that drive which were installed on the HDD? I'm just a newbie in setting up sleeper pcs and I got an HP Elitedesk 800 G1 SFF at the moment. Making this my main gaming PC as well. Thanks bro!

I moved some games from the HDD to SSD but didnt have to reinstall any since they were already on my other drive

@@Shakeem thanks man! I'll do those once my SSD arrives

[@stevenm3141]

One suggestion to flip the SSD upsidedown when mounting it in the bracket. Don't forget to flip the power cable upsidedown too.

[@purekryt6961]

1:29 I laughed so hard it flew into the pc

[@SA77888]

1:30 Yeah, I recommend it too since my last ( very old ) computer died since I didnt de-dust the motherboard and more importantly the fan. The fan was soo packed with dust (disgusting I know) that the fan stopped worked - thus overheated the cpu. Now on this computer Im always checking my 'dust levels'.

im getting one this year cuz i dont really need a high end pc and this is going to help me out

The SSD is a good choice. But, for even more gaming/editing prowess. A Gigabyte 1650 D6 LP will do better.

Im currently upgrading the same comp. What u were calling your hdd was actually your optic drive. Your hdd is mounted under your psu. I actually removed the optic drive and with some creativity and 2 pci extensions, i have a full size 1650 in mine. 16 gigs ram, 256ssd and 500hdd for storage. The comps are so fun to upgrade. Came with upgraded i5 cpu so it rocks.

You made a huge mistake, SATA ports on the motherboard are not the same, the blue one on the left is SATA 3.0, the next is SATA 3.0, the next is SATA 2.0 for the optical drive, and the last one (the one you used) is ESATA 2.0 for detachable devices. Change your sad to the blue or the next to it to have full 6Gbps speed.

Do you need the Sata cable and the mounting bracket?

[@Shakeem]

There’s a extra sata cable already in there. But it’s good to have a extra one. But you will need a mounting bracket

Keemborghini thank you!!

For a SSD, you don't need to have a bracket. It's nice to have, but using double- sided tape works perfectly fine.
