    "For a hard drive to be able to be read and written to in both a PC and Mac computer, it must be formatted to exFAT or FAT32 file format."

      seriously?
      Linux can deal with NTFS now for years!
      exFAT, should not be fully supported by mac or linux for License reasons btw.

        ASUS ROG STRIX B550-I GAMING - M.2_2 port not working correctly with SAMSUNG SSD980 1TB NVME SSD
        by DynaxSC
        Hi,

        I have an really very weired issue with ASUS ROG STRIX B550-I GAMING.

        Some NVME (PCIe) SSD's are not working correctly in the second M.2 socket. An example of it is the SAMSUNG SSD980 1TB NVME SSD.
        Some other NVME (I have only smaller ones) disk do work without any problem, also SAMSUNG disks, eg an MZVPV128HDGM-0000.

        The behaviour is also really very strange, i.e.:
        • The disk shows always up in BIOS - so it is recognized, so far so good
        • POST-ing with this disk with fresh Windows 24H2 installation (done in the M.2_1 socket) in the M.2_2 socket
        ...

        Copy DMI info easily with Hex editing software and Macro script
        by SMDFlea
        Copying DMI information from an old bios to a new one is difficult for some members, often they have no experience with a hex editor,or some that have tried find it too hard.There is an option to make things easier for those members so that they don`t need to post their own bios backup for the DMI copying.

        Experienced bios modding members can help by posting in other threads the DMI offsets,macro script generated by the software and a download link to the software at softpedia mentioned in this guide,or post your macros in the comments here with a link to the bios request thread ....

        PS5 Disk Tray issues.
        by welp
        I have a PlayStation 5 CH-1215A with a Disk drive not reading disks anymore. (accepting and ejecting very slowly.)
        Knowing the PS5 has a married daughter board for the disk drive I made sure to use that and replace the rest of the disk tray as it* was owned previously by an indoor smoker.
        Once the job was complete and put back everything together, I tried to insert a disk with no luck at all...
        So, I checked voltage going from the ps5 to the daughter board and am only getting the 5V rail.
        With that knowledge I preceded to check all the fuses for the 12v rail on the main...

        IMPORTANT information - XinZhiZao / XZZ PCB File format is now supported by FlexBV (free and licenced editions)
        by inflex
        This is an important update for ALL the repair community.

        For years now the repair industry has suffered to a new class of gatekeeper when it comes to getting our boardviews & schematics, files are being leaked out of factories but only to select groups who then no longer share those files out to the community, locking them up in a proporiatory format with online-only access.

        The XZZ PCB file format has now been reverse engineered and you can now read those .pcb files in FlexBV, free, demo and licenced edtiions.
