    Are my hard drives supposed to use Microsoft drivers


    Just curious about something. I noticed in device manager that my hard drives are all using Microsoft drivers. I do have the latest firmware installed for them. The manufacturer's website does not have any drivers listed for the drives. Maybe this is just how it is, but I was curious, so I thought I would ask.

    Samsung SSD 840 PRO Series

    Seagate ST1000DX001-1CM162

  3. Overclock your hard drive!!!

    Heres a much easier hack that I realized quite a few years ago that really does work!

    REQUIREMENTS:
    • Hard drive with molex power connection.
    • PSU with more than 1 strand that has molex plugs on it.
    • Wire strippers, soldering iron if you're fancy, electrical tape if you're not.
    STEPS:
    • Take the strand of connectors from your PSU, and decide which one will be the donator for this overclocking adventure.
    • Cut the yellow and orange cables, then twist them together.
    • Find the power connector you've chosen as the overclocking connector, and release the orange cable from the connector. Now use your preferred method to bind them together, then place it back together.
    • Plug in a drive and feel the speed!
    Congratulations! You've just overclocked your hard drive!
