Crystalmark is a useful benchmark to measure theoretical performance levels of hard drives and SSD’s. We are using V3.0.3. We test the Solid State Drive and the mechanical drive.
The SSD speed is one of the fastest results we’ve ever seen from Crystal Disk Mark, while the 190 MB/sec achieved by the Seagate SSHD is also quite good.
ATTO shows the same story. Clearly PCI-Express is the future of SSDs, and it’s quite amazing to think the small green PCB inserted into the motherboard’s M.2 socket is capable of such fast transfer rates.
You’d be silly to spend £1600 on this when you can build a more powerful system for £100-200 cheaper.
Most people pay to have stuff done for them, that’s the point; not everyone has the time to sit down and build. No one needs to know how a computer works or is put together to use it; it is no different than an automobile.

Building a PC is relatively easy. It mostly involves plugging/connecting things together as instructed in the hardware manuals. It just looks, and sounds more complicated than it actually is, and goes a long way in teaching the builder how, and what can go wrong with a system. I’m completely self taught from a young age, and i’m now a full time IT engineer.
If you learn even the basic concepts of PC hardware, it goes a long way in helping you to help yourself when something goes wrong, AND ultimately saves you money. Akin to learning how to change a flat tire, or a faulty headlamp bulb on an automobile. If you don’t learn the basics, you’re going to be paying a lot of money for an otherwise relatively simple task.
It’s not that “no one needs to know” its just that some people are too lazy to learn.
What warranty does your self-build come with?
I’m too too busy/lazy to learn how to subsist entirely on food I grow and rear myself. Instead I “overpay” by shopping at Waitrose. Feel free to judge me on that too.
It comes with the hardware manufacturers warranty. The same one you’ll get from resellers, unless you foolishly pay for an additional guarantee package, like on site, or return to Base. Yes, I will gladly judge you since you shop in Waitrose.
exactly. The build has zero warranty and you have no one to turn to if your system develops a fault.
what is it about waitrose that you are most strongly against? the high standards of animal and environmental stewardship they demand from suppliers, or the fair price they pay to them?
You are speaking of a system as a whole with a baseline warranty, such as a system that is pre-built. Of which, an additional guarantee package can be provided, at cost, by re-sellers. You know the type of insurance package that Curry’s, or one of the main electronic retailers will try to sell you at the checkout? It is not usually required since the manufacturers warranties exist. The only bonus from something like this is say for the likes of a Fridge-Freezer or Washing machine…..if it breaks down, they will offer a pick-up and replace scenario. Now that is useful. As I have experienced when my washing machine decided to flood the kitchen. I made sure I knew what went wrong, so that maybe I could repair it myself if there is a next time, and not have to get the extended warranty again.
Each component in a Personal Computer however, is (or at least should be) chosen by preference and thus also carries an individual standard manufacturers warranty for each component you decide to purchase. Pre-built or not.
In case you weren’t aware, with PC hardware, different manufacturers offer different lengths of warranty. For example; a graphics card from ASUS might have a 3 Year Warranty, where as other manufacturers will carry a 5 year, or even a lifetime warranty. Most RAM modules carry lifetime warranties. They all differ. This actually means that you really don’t have to purchase in an additional warranty package for a full pre-built system (a majority of these don’t come as standard anyway, and require additional cost after buying the system and paying for the building of the system)
If something fails within a PC, you only have RMA the failed component, (as long as it is still in warranty) and get it replaced. The trepidation for most people comes in how to go about figuring out what has failed. This goes back to what I was saying. Learning some of the basics ~ especially when you are investing a lot of money in hardware, and knowing what you are getting yourself into, goes a long way to saving money, and who doesn’t like to save some money? Hence why I wouldn’t shop at Waitrose either; but hey, it’s just my opinion…each to their own. I personally think all supermarket chains are as bad as each other.
When I was young, I bought pre-built systems, learnt about them when they broke down, and replaced the parts myself. Now I just build my own outright, and they don’t break down as much either.
Unless you are a computer expert or know one, how do you tell which is the failed component? You can’t and have no one to turn to, hence the warranty which all reputable system builders provide as standard, no matter how many times you try to lie claiming otherwise.
Suggesting we all train ourselves as white goods repair people is identical to your PC argument, and is therefore defeated by the same counterarguments I have provided. Cost is not the only consideration.
I’m not going to continue a discussion with somebody who says that I lose, am lying, or any other immature attack. That’s just trolling. I won’t reiterate on things that you choose not to pick up on either. If you read back on this discussion… I wasn’t arguing. I simply have my opinions and have shared them here. Take it or leave it.
It is sincere, valid argument which is not what trolling is. I have picked up everything and refuted it, including your “lie” about reputable system builders’ inclusive system warranty, thus you “losing”.
Good luck with your pre-built system if you decide to get one…. You’ll need it.
that is hypocritical and makes no sense. It will have an inclusive warranty and will require zero special skill on my part to maintain, thus taking “luck” out of the equation. However, over time living with it I have the option and opportunity to learn about maintaining it, like you did, should it interest me, because I am tech savvy and highly intelligent.
