    There was a lot of it and I didn't have a brush at hand or anything.

    But it's not looking good. I just want the computer to work, y'know. I don't even do weird shit with this one.

    From the NAS' journey of discovery I DO have a spare motherboard but it is mATX instead and the case won't fit it. So testing that is possible but very much a pain. And while I have a spare CPU, that's known bad. REALLY hoping to not have to go down THAT rabbit hole.

    Well, breakfast time I guess

    And, hey. 99% of the memtest passed with no errors. Was pretty sure of this one as I think I did this check when the unmounting issue first started (literally overnight). Still, any reassurance is welcome

    @VileLasagna At least the GPU is fine?

    I went through something similar a few months back, swapping out MB, CPU, RAM, GPU, and trying RAM slot musical chairs, only to discover that the problem was a failed PSU. It had excellent ratings and pro reviews and came from a respected OEM and died after 2+ years of its 10 year warranty.

    PC diagnostics can be utter hell. Wishing you the best on this one. If it's an X570 MB it should have 2 M.2 slots. I didn't see if you said that your boot sector/read errors persist no matter what slot you use

    @NaClKnight Yeah, I remember you going through that nightmare. I think it was somewhat around the time in which I was trying to revive my NAS too.

    I think most X570 mobos have 2 M.2 slots but this one only has the one on account of being a mini-ITX mobo, space is pretty tight.

    And yeah, I think the GPU is fine. Didn't have the same sort of crashes I had with the 5700XT on the other machine which is pretty confirmed to NOT be all right. Would NOT want to imagine having to replace this 6900XT
