• Issue: The new drive is smaller than the advertised capacity.
  Чечим: The advertised capacity uses 1GB = 1 billion bytes and 1TB = 1 trillion bytes. Actual user capacity may be less depending on the operating system's calculation method and reserved space for system functions.
• Issue: The SSD is not recognized or performing slowly.
  Чечим: Ensure your motherboard's M.2 slot supports PCIe NVMe or M Key with NVMe. This SSD is not compatible with SATA M.2 slots. Consult your motherboard manual for compatibility. Check if the SSD is properly seated and the mounting screw is secure. Update your motherboard's BIOS/UEFI and chipset drivers.
• Issue: System instability or crashes after installation.
