Cool device but I've had some issues

on December 2, 2016

Posted by: MrRik

Verified Purchase:Yes

I installed Ubuntu (linix) for my computer on this device to dual boot my computer and it works well and is fast, however it has failed on me. I believe that it needs to be warmed up before I can boot from it, but I'm not sure. If I have it attached with the computer on then boot from it after a while it works fine, but I've booted from it cold and Ubuntu has a memory read failure and can't load. Not sure what the issue is, It is a bit problematic for me since I have to wait to boot to it or I have to boot windows up first, so that defeats the purpose of fast boot times that I got it for. Not sure if this is specific to the way I am using it since I've never used it as a simple storage device.

Amazing Computer

on December 2, 2016

Posted by: MrRik

Verified Purchase:Yes

I really like this computer. It is well built and has a really good display. It also can play games with graphics. Although Witcher will not play in 4k (it only occupies 1080p of the screen). The keyboard can be customized to be different colors, I have my computer set so the keyboard has 4 different led colors as well as the logos and other led areas and they rotate colors. It was distracting at frist so I had it on just one color but I showed it to my nephew and never changed it back and I'm set. I originally bought it to do machine learning which it does not have the best graphics card but it can accommodate it due to the fans and hardware. It also only has 8gb of RAM which I plan to upgrade some day but honestly, I don't really see the difference yet. Maybe I just don't push it to the limit. It boots super fast, amazing coming from older computers.
