If there is a compatibility issue, it is recommended to replace the memory stick with a compatible one.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000\">Damaged memory sticks:<\/span> There may be a problem with the memory sticks themselves that prevents the motherboard from recognising them correctly. Try inserting the memory sticks one by one and test them, inserting them individually into each memory slot and restarting the computer to see if they are recognised correctly. If only one of the memory sticks is not recognised, it is likely that it is damaged and you will need to replace it with a new one.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000\">BIOS settings:<\/span> In some cases, the motherboard&#8217;s BIOS settings may affect the memory recognition. Enter the BIOS interface (usually by pressing the Del, F2 or Esc key) and check the \u2018Memory Settings\u2019 or related options to make sure the memory is recognised and configured correctly.

However, SSDs still have some advantages in terms of power performance, such as the fact that SSDs do not have an internal rotating motor, and therefore consume significantly less power in the idle state. Second, because there is no ramp-up or ramp-down startup time, SSDs enter or wake from hibernation in less time and more frequently. Finally, SSDs are able to do the same work in less time and therefore enter hibernation earlier. All of these advantages make SSDs more energy efficient than traditional hard disks in the real world.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t<div id=\"accordion-1712307936\" class=\"accordion-item\">\n\t\t<a id=\"accordion-1712307936-label\" class=\"accordion-title plain\" href=\"#accordion-item-difference-between-memory-and-hard-drive.\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"accordion-1712307936-content\">\n\t\t\t<button class=\"toggle\" aria-label=\"Umschalten\"><i class=\"icon-angle-down\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/button>\n\t\t\t<span>Difference between memory and hard drive.<\/span>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<div id=\"accordion-1712307936-content\" class=\"accordion-inner\" aria-labelledby=\"accordion-1712307936-label\">\n\t\t\t\n<p>First of all, memory and hard disc are different in function.

The performance of the hard disc mainly depends on its data transfer speed and storage medium, only need hard disc data reading speed is fast enough; while the performance of the memory is dependent on its processing data speed, that is, what we call the frequency, the faster the frequency of memory, the faster the speed of data exchange, therefore affecting its performance.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, the size of their capacity also varies greatly. Hard drive usually has a larger storage capacity, common SSD and HDD hard drive capacity of hundreds of GB to several TB; while the capacity of the memory stick is relatively small, common only 4GB, 8GB, 16GB, etc., although with the development of technology, also gave birth to a single 48GB memory stick, but compared with the hard drive is still a huge gap.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t<div id=\"accordion-1511902105\" class=\"accordion-item\">\n\t\t<a id=\"accordion-1511902105-label\" class=\"accordion-title plain\" href=\"#accordion-item-what-are-the-determinants-of-ssd-speed?\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"accordion-1511902105-content\">\n\t\t\t<button class=\"toggle\" aria-label=\"Umschalten\"><i class=\"icon-angle-down\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/button>\n\t\t\t<span>What are the determinants of SSD speed?<\/span>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<div id=\"accordion-1511902105-content\" class=\"accordion-inner\" aria-labelledby=\"accordion-1511902105-label\">\n\t\t\t\n<p>The performance of any SSD is determined by a combination of raw flash bandwidth, the efficiency of the loss balancing algorithm (firmware), and the interface (SATA, PCI-E, etc.).

The way SSDs store data is significantly different from traditional hard discs, for example, to prevent frequent reads of a storage unit that can lead to rapid aging, SSDs tend to use a \u2018wear levelling\u2019 mechanism that averages out the number of reads and writes to each block. Current operating systems are not prepared for this.<\/p>\n<p>The main principle of the disk defragmenter is to put the data that needs to be read frequently where it can be accessed at high speed, and the data that is rarely accessed is piled up in the corners. The principle of SSD is that it can find any piece of data very quickly. Current disk defragmentation tools just can&#8217;t do anything to optimise the file system of an SSD. Therefore, my recommendation is that SSD users should disable automatic disk defragmentation and not do it manually either.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t<div id=\"accordion-324322409\" class=\"accordion-item\">\n\t\t<a id=\"accordion-324322409-label\" class=\"accordion-title plain\" href=\"#accordion-item-memory-sequencing\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"accordion-324322409-content\">\n\t\t\t<button class=\"toggle\" aria-label=\"Umschalten\"><i class=\"icon-angle-down\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/button>\n\t\t\t<span>Memory sequencing<\/span>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<div id=\"accordion-324322409-content\" class=\"accordion-inner\" aria-labelledby=\"accordion-324322409-label\">\n\t\t\t\n<p>Timing refers to the latency of the memory, and is generally shown using four sets of parameters with dashes, e.g., 16-18-18-36, CL-TRCD-TRP-TRAS, respectively;<\/p>\n<p>We generally focus only on the first parameter, the CL value, which can be roughly interpreted as the reflection time; in most cases, the lower the CL value, the better, given the same memory frequency.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t<div id=\"accordion-2897274425\" class=\"accordion-item\">\n\t\t<a id=\"accordion-2897274425-label\" class=\"accordion-title plain\" href=\"#accordion-item-why-isn&#039;t-more-memory-capacity-better?\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"accordion-2897274425-content\">\n\t\t\t<button class=\"toggle\" aria-label=\"Umschalten\"><i class=\"icon-angle-down\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/button>\n\t\t\t<span>Why isn't more memory capacity better?<\/span>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<div id=\"accordion-2897274425-content\" class=\"accordion-inner\" aria-labelledby=\"accordion-2897274425-label\">\n\t\t\t\n<div>The larger the memory capacity, the more addresses there are, and the longer it takes to successfully find the required data;<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>The instructions executed by the CPU need to be preloaded into memory, and when they need to be executed, the CPU will go to memory to find the corresponding instructions; each place in memory where an instruction is stored has an address, and the larger the memory capacity, the more addresses there will be, and when the processor is trying to locate an instruction, it will take longer to search for it, which will result in a decrease in performance instead of an increase.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>In addition, it is not that the smaller the capacity of the memory is better, because the memory is a temporary storage space when the computer is running, equal to a temporary transit warehouse, the capacity is small, the space is not enough to trigger lag, frequent disk reading and many other problems.<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t<div id=\"accordion-538234953\" class=\"accordion-item\">\n\t\t<a id=\"accordion-538234953-label\" class=\"accordion-title plain\" href=\"#accordion-item-what-are-the-advantages-and-disadvantages-of-ssds-over-hdds?\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"accordion-538234953-content\">\n\t\t\t<button class=\"toggle\" aria-label=\"Umschalten\"><i class=\"icon-angle-down\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/button>\n\t\t\t<span>What are the advantages and disadvantages of SSDs over HDDs?<\/span>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<div id=\"accordion-538234953-content\" class=\"accordion-inner\" aria-labelledby=\"accordion-538234953-label\">\n\t\t\t\n<p>Like two sides of anything else, SSDs and HDDs have their advantages and disadvantages.
