Not an SSD

[Dooshon Manndic]

At the start up the game stats it is not installed on an SSD, but I do have it installed on a Samsung 4TB M.2 SSD. Is this just an error?

if you know it's 100% on the ssd drive, then it's there.

You can check in steam what your default install folder is located at.

Or maybe it wants your windows os to be on SSD too.

I have the game on nvme, and windows on sata ssd (rapid mode enabled, ironically faster than nvme gen 4).

I also have this message appear and mine, like all my games, directly goes to my SSD NVME. I doubled checked and yeah it's there but I still get the message Everytime I open the game. Then my game runs fine.

Does the in game pc specs show you have directstorage enabled?
Maybe it's related to it.

Option could be that you put the drive on the slowest gen slot, and the bandwidth isn't enough it to be considered an ssd drive.
Same could be with sata, if you for example have a shared bandwidth between different sata and pci-e m.2 slots.

You can check your motherboards manual and if you aren't using any conflicting slots or slower bandwidth slots.

I will have to check, thank you all for the updates.

if it's an external it's not the same as a proper ssd.
