My Zero SER5 host has just been bought for more than two months. It is configured as 512G solid state drive , 16Gb of memory. I used to have a 480GB 2.5-inch hard drive at home. I added one. I originally thought that it would be enough to upgrade the hard drive, but because I used the sata protocol, the speed is much slower than the M.2 solid state. The hard drive that comes with Zero SER5 is a 512GB Nvme protocol M.2 solid state. I thought I could upgrade it and upgrade it to 1TB capacity. This way, the game can be installed directly on the C drive, and it is enough to play games. In addition, the speed can be increased several times. It is actually not difficult to disassemble and upgrade. Today I specially made an upgrade tutorial to facilitate reference for friends who have bought Zero Mini Host.
The configuration of this mini host I bought is still very good. The AMD Ryzen5-5600H processor, a 16G memory and a 512G hard disk composed of two 8G memory sticks. The host runs very smoothly, and the body is very small, so it does not take up any space at home. However, the memory is a bit small. Fortunately, there are two memory stick card slots, so I thought of buying a 32GB memory stick first to replace it. If it is not enough, I can buy another 32GB memory, which can be upgraded to at least 64GB memory. In addition, I still want to upgrade the hard disk to 1TB. The hard disk is now cheap. Please upgrade it together and use it as a main computer. Upgrade steps: first disassemble the machine, then find the M.2 solid state hard drive bit, replace the original 512G solid state with 1TB solid state, then take out the original memory stick, and replace it with the newly purchased memory stick. I won't introduce the mini host of
Zero-Chi mini host, it has a very good reputation abroad and is now developing very strongly in China, because it is mainly much smaller than traditional hosts, and the cost-effectiveness has always been very good, so it has accumulated a lot of fans. The only regret is that the hard disk capacity is indeed a little smaller and the memory is also a little smaller. If you expand the hard disk and upgrade the memory, you will have no disadvantages. When the main machine has no problems, I bought the Jinbaida KP230 1TB M.2 SSD this time, and the memory stick is Jinbaida 32GB DDR4-3200 memory stick.
is the same as a laptop. If you disassemble the machine before upgrading, you must disassemble the machine. Mini hosts like Zero Ke use the same memory stick as laptops. The solid-state drive is an M.2 solid-state drive. If you disassemble the machine, it is easier to operate than a laptop. First, slowly remove the screws on the back cover of the body. Pay attention when disassembling. The back shell is snapped to the hard disk cable, so be careful to uncover it. After unveiling it, you can see that there is an M.2 hard drive bit, two built-in 8GB memory sticks, and a 2.5-inch HDD hard drive bit.
We saw that the Zero SER5 mini motherboard was designed very neatly. First, I found the M.2 solid state drive bit, took off the original 512GB solid state drive, and then installed the solid state drive of Jinbaida KP230 SSD, and it was OK. When operating , be careful, it is very simple. Remember not to operate under plug-in state. After installing
, install the patch radiator provided by Jinbaida. The installation is also very simple, just paste it on the hard disk. With Jinbaida's heatsink, it can help the hard disk dissipate heat better.
Next, remove the original two 8GB memory sticks, and then install the Jinbaida 32GB DDR4-3200 memory stick. The remaining memory stick card slot can be added to form 64GB of memory in the later stage, but upgrading from 16G to 32G is enough to meet daily usage needs.
Because the computer has replaced the system disk, we need to reinstall the system for the Zero Mini Host, plug in the USB drive to install the system, and then automatically install it when you turn on the computer. When you turn on the computer, you can see that the hard disk capacity has changed from 512GB to 1TB.
After installing the system, measure the speed of the new hard disk. Through the professional CrystalDiskMark software test of , the running score results showed that the reading speed of this 1TB hard disk of Jinbaida reached 3656MB/s and the writing speed reached 2826.3MB/s. The running score was really fast.It is much faster than my original hard drive before, and it only ran about 2000MB/s for reading. This time the upgrade is still very good, the speed has been improved, and the capacity has been upgraded from 512GB to 1TB.
memory bit width and data throughput speed are also very good.
Then look back at this Zero Mini Host. After the upgrade, it has been upgraded from 512G to 1TB capacity. The hard disk capacity has been upgraded, and the speed has been greatly improved. The memory has also been upgraded from 16G to 32G memory. Jinbaida's hard disk and memory are quite good and very stable. Through this upgrade of hard disk and memory, this mini host can be used as the main computer at home. You can replace the previous desktop with confidence. If you also bought a Zero Mini Host, be bold and careful. Follow my steps to upgrade your computer with solid state and memory. Just buy a solid state and laptop-compatible memory stick like Jinbaida. The solid state hard disk I currently use is very stable.
