The M4, what exactly do I need to be able to update the firmware..? or should I buy a different ssd to avoid that step altogether?
Last question: Whats the best way to transfer all my data(possibly, settings?) from my current system to the one I'm going to build? just an extra HD? Not looking forward to setting up all my little programs again (VAC,Mixcraft,FL)
