Nice video... thinking about putting an m.2 drive in my rig and just running windows off it. I am currently using a 850 evo. Here is what I am thinking... Buy an M.2 drive and only install windows 10 on it, then use the 850 Evo for installations and such for the os. Is that something that would be ideal?

Take a look at the 300 chipset series systems. The Core i5 CPUs for those are 6 core. DDR4 Ram. I went with a MSI board this time that has only one M.2 slot. But the BPX 240GB M.2 drive in this video went up in price this year. From $114.99 last year to $129.99 shipped. The Western Digital Black Series PCIe X4 drives are $119.99 for the 250GB 3D Nand. Here is the BPX drives link - www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01M4OO1FT/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Here is the Western Digital Black - www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?item=N82E16820250097 The Western Digital Black Series M.2 Drive that I believe just got released, are stating Interface PCI-Express 3.0 x4 Performance Max Sequential Read Up to 3000 MBps Max Sequential Write Up to 1600 MBps ----------------------------------------------------------------- BPX 240GB MyDigitalSSD BPX Controller Phison Performance Max Sequential Read Up to 2600 MBps Max Sequential Write Up to 1300 MBps I may be changing my drive here soon. That Western Digital drive looks to be insane fast for everyday computing and gaming. Tests to come soon.

You can do that, if you have 2 slots for M.2 drives. There are PCIe X2-4 and the X16 video slot can be used to adapt the M.2 drives. NewEgg has the adapters.

why do i have to have 2 m.2 slots? Dont I just need the one, and a sata drive to migrate the os to the m.2 drive?

I was just thinking if you wanted to run the OS on one, & the programs on another one. I think....lol.
