Indicates that certain SATA connections on hard drives may fail when using an M.2 enclosure. Similar to physical drives, they rely on SATA technology.

Are you planning to boost performance further? Do you have any additional requirements, such as a Wi-Fi connection?

I reside in India with a budget of 50,000 rupees, roughly 67.125 dollars. My computer needs an i5 processor, SSD storage, and a solid graphics card.

With that budget it's quite challenging. I think you're planning to play on the PC?

This market isn’t likely to change much. An i5-10400, motherboard, and SSD would already cost around $300. Adding a power supply, case, and RAM pushes the total to $450–$500. That leaves just a little over $200 for a GPU. Back then, $200 GPUs were available, but now they’re rare, especially in the US. You might find one for $200, though it won’t be very strong.

The PC list you provided was this, but the price went over the BOQ in the PC.xlsx file.
