So I decided it was time to upgrade, as my laptop wasn't handling games the way I'd like them. Had some hiccups at first but so far things have been ending well! I do have one question I hope reddit could help me with. My computer detects my second harddrive, the HDD, but doesn't let me use it. Any thoughts on how I could fix that?! Thx and hope you enjoy!
P.S -- I know my cable management could use some work. It shall be changed up once I open her up again (when I decide to get a CPU cooler and overclock ;P)
