Asus Laptop Windows 10 Activation After Reset

Using an Asus ux501vw laptop, Windows 10, latest drivers and firmware. Works great! Write speed (Raid 0) 350MB/sec. Moved 1TB without any problems.

Purchased a used model. Everything but the power cord was inside the box. Luckily, I had a spare so no issue turning it on, but when I did the User/Password screen appeared instead of the Activation screen. The device was not obviously not reset to factory settings before repackaging. Went to Youtube (University) and found reset button is supposedly mounted on the board inside. Found it after removing the screws and cover. Pressed continuously for 30 seconds until one beep sounded. Released the button and after several minutes the Activation screen popped up on my SmartTV connected via hdmi cable to the NVR. Thereafter used the browser GUI interface to complete the setup. The device takes longer to start up compared to an older EV1 model, which has been running with no issues for the past five years. Also purchased a used HIK 8mp POE bullet camera model ds-2cd2083g2-iu which has stunning clarity and color. Takes time to sync with the NVR on startup but well worth the wait. Reported the factory reset issue to B&H. Saved half the cost, compared to buying new. Only minor blemishes on the outside. All good on the inside. HIK's iPhone app (iVMS4500) is the best there is for remote viewing. Others simply don't compare in ease of use.

Worked great with my Windows 10 laptop. I did not need to use the Driver DVD.

Replaced Optiarc AD-7240S which did not work with Windows 10. ASUS DRW-24B1ST was a good choice for replacement.

Works great connecting my TB2 Raid to my Windows Asus ProArt Studiobook Laptop. Allows me to get continued use of my expensive Raid 2 storage array well into the future maximizing return on my investment. Highly recommended !!

This is just what was needed for more flexibility during presentations. Works great with my Windows 10 laptop.

Be using it to connect a laptop to Ethernet and work works without any issues in Windows 10.

Tested with Shure SM58S mic on windows 10 PC/Laptop. Works with both.

I bought it to upgrade our Samsung laptop. It fits and I was able to install Windows 10 with no problems.

After upgrading to Windows 10 my HP computer the built-in sound card stopped working and I couldn't find a driver to work with Windows 10, this small device was simple to install, just plug the device to a USB port and installed it's own driver automatically and it was up and running in no time. I don't mind the device sticking out is just like any USB drive.
