My PSU is a Cooler Master Extreme 2 Power Plus 625W.

Doing the same as before, everything except motherboard and SSD has power. It did not make that same "dack" sound at all. As scientific method as this can be, I powered it up and shut it down 10 consecutive times. Then I yanked my SSD from my desktop case and put it into a hard drive dock (Thermaltake Duet). I held it up to my hear, as well, to make sure that it was the SSD and not something on the motherboard. 6 of those 10 times I heard that same muted "dack" sound a moment or two after the POST beep. ![]() I powered up and went into the BIOS 10 times. ![]() The only thing that had any power was the SSD and the 24-pin to the motherboard. So on to the testing!Īs I previously mentioned, I unplugged the power to all of my moving components (case and CPU fans, GPU, and SATA power to the hard drives.
