Computer Stuck On Boot Screen Windows 11

This little USB drive is used to house a portable Windows 11 Pro system. Can be used to boot up any system such as in hotel bussiness center or library. The metal case protects it from being in a pocket or bag every day plus helps with heat dissipation.

With the impending Windows 11 launch, a lot of people will be upgrading to your boards, but want to use existing drives. I spent hours figuring out that my problem was legacy boot vs. UEFI boot. You should develop a clear instruction for when a boot fails, but all disks are seen in the BIOS.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Fast boot with Windows 11! Samsung Magician provides good drive status info and automatically keeps SSD updated. And, data transfer from HDD to SSD was simple, quick and without problems.

Great computer...much faster than my old one was. Had to upgrade for Windows 11.

I had a horrible time getting this memory to work. After installation, my computer was stuck in a boot/reboot cycle before it even started to POST. It turned out that the memory sockets on my motherboard were either out of tolerance, or had extremely tight tolerances. Either way, the issue was that the memory module was not properly seated. It clicked into the socket and the locking lever locked it in place, but it wasn't making proper electrical contact. It took about an hour and multiple reseatings/checking different sockets to diagnose the problem, but once solved, it's been completely reliable for the several months that it's been installed.

Great for backing up files. It worked on a Windows 11 and Windows 10 computer.

I installed this 6tb to replace the 1tb drive that came with the computer. The Windows OS was on an a solid state drive and that helped make this an easy install. It worked perfectly on the first boot up after a minor change to the boot up instructions. It is a 7200 6tb drive at a great price and I highly recommend it.

Setup was fairly easy; although, the manual instructions did not match the actual steps on my Windows 11 computer.

This is the fastest, coolest (temperature), and versatile computer I have owned. I have owned various MacBook Pro's (Intel era), iMacs and MacPros (cheese grate), so I know a little about OSX computers. I use Parallels sometimes to run Windows 11 Pro, and this computer does not disappoint. I use CT scans for work, and can seamlessly use the same software at work (Intel PCs with Nvidia RTX cards) vs. my ARM version Windows 11 Pro in virtual machine simulation. Manipulation of these 3D renders is comparable in speed (even though the software explicitly states that it was not optimized to use ARM chips). Haven't found anything that really slows it down. The computer is mostly cool all the time. The fans barely quick up, if at all, so it is really quiet.  But most importantly, I use this computer day in and day out, and most of the time I can use it all day for three to four days before it is down to the 20-30% range where I start feeling anxious and then I plug it in. Charge up is super quick as well -- I think less than an hour to fully charge to 100% from a really low state of charge. So this is the first computer that I feel comfortable calling portable since I don't have to worry so much about finding a plug somewhere. For sure, a well built solid machine. The only cons I have to report is the weight -- I put a clam shell clear protector (which was not that heavy), but I feel that this laptop could be used as a weapon to defend myself if I had to (like the really old IBM mechanical keyboards if you are from my generation). Also, I think there is a small defect on the edge of my screen in the super thin black surround frame which is a purely cosmetic annoyance. I didn't bother to claim warranty on this since I figure it does not really affect the computer's functions. Overall, I would buy it again, although I probably would wait for the M4 that is coming out soon. Kudos to Apple again for creating such a nice piece of hardware.
