User questions & answers

Question:	How do you format this and why is that necessary for new drives? What stops me from plugging it right into my system and getting started
Answer:	Depends on what you're doing. You can connect this to your system but new drives will not be functional until you initialize them and create a partition under Disk Management. Your other option (what I did with this drive) is to disconnect your existing drive and then install this (while PC is off if that's not obvious). Then you have a blank drive in your system and can boot from an OS disc like Windows 10. A fresh Windows 10 installation will still recognize the drive and be able to initialize it properly as well as create the necessary partitions. Let me know if you have any follow up questions.
Question:	Hi i have questions how the better samsung evo 970 or wd black 250gb high-performance nvme pcie gen3 8 gb/s m
Answer:	Reviews have suggested that the two drives are VERY close in performance (nearly within margin of error of tests). The WD Black gen3 devices were the first ones to actually challenge the 960 EVO NVMe drives for dominance of the high-performance consumer grade SSDs. You can't go wrong with either one, as far as I can tell, at least from reviews. They'll provide insignificant differences in speed/performance between the two. Therefore, you should purchase based on price and (if it's important to you) warranty. Note also that the WD drive caps at 1TB in size (vs. 2 TB for the 970 EVO), so if you wanted to go that route, there's only one choice. As far as "best high-performance consumer level" NVMe drive, the 970 EVO and the 3rd generation WD black are on an even playing field, and both at the top of the stack (this ignores the "prosumer" market devices like the 970 Pro where prices are much higher per gigabyte). Note that it's possible that you won't notice any performance difference between these high-performance NVMe drives and, say, a high-quality SATA drive.
Question:	I want the 2 TB, is it possible
Answer:	If you find someone with TB, you can have as much of it as you want!
Question:	Whats the difference between this one and the 960 pro
Answer:	The 960 Pro is from the previous generation. The newer one is the 970 Pro. Comparing the 960 Pro to the newer 970 EVO is a bit difficult because they aren't in the same class. The Primary difference between the Pro and the EVO is the Pro uses MLC (Multi Level Cell) whereas the EVO uses a Triple Level Cell. Case and point with the EVO. You can get a 2tb EVO drive but the Pro tops out at 1tb. The silicon is able to get more storage space for the real estate with TLC. On the other hand MLC is more reliable and more hearty than TLC which is why the Pro is using the MLC. Maybe you want to know about write endurance. One thing to keep in mind about write endurance is you will probably never come close to hitting it's limits unless you are using the drive all the time to save and load large files like a professional would. Also, the write endurance of the 1tb 970 Pro is double the write endurance of the 512gb 970 Pro. hardware review sites and done tests of the actual write cycle longevity of these drives and these drives last longer than what they're rated for. More than likely in your case, these drives will be long obsolete by the time they're half worn out. The write endurance of the 500gb 970 EVO is 300TB write cycles. Sequential R/W of the 970 EVO is 3400MB/s read and 2300MB/s write. I believe the 970 evo uses a Single Level Cell cache to boost write speeds. The write endurance of the 512gb 960 Pro is 400TB/wc. Sequential R/W of the 960 Pro is 3500MB/s read and 2100MB/s write The 970 series is more refined. Both use the updated Phoenix controller whereas the 960 series uses the Polaris controller. Both the 960 Pro and 970 EVO have a 5 year warranty. The older 960 EVO only has a 3 year warranty. The answer to this question between the 960 Pro and 970 Evo is simple........... get whichever is cheaper.

User questions & answers

Question:	will this ram able to over clock to like 2666 or 3000 ect? Many Thanks
Answer:	Yes and no, ram overclocking to that level is more dependent on processor than ram. I can't do the overclock profile on mine with the 5930 because it breaks the base clock of my processor.
Question:	Anyone using with a ryzen 5 1600? what speeds can you get with this? putting together a gaming pc with my son - have an asus rog b350 mobo
Answer:	This is taken from a review below that helped me get it to run at it's full speed "3200MHz by using 16-18-18-36-55+ timings that I plugged in manually (the xmp profile was 16-18-18-36-54) It took me changing the 54 to 55 to get it to 3200 and I gained 15+ fps in most games
Question:	Can I use it on an am4 socket
Answer:	No, you have to put them in the RAM slots the am4 socket is for CPU's :)
Question:	Why does it say DDR3 2400 in the ram memory technology area and if that isn't a mistake, what does that mean vs "DDR
Answer:	2400 is the standard clock rate for this ram. You'll need to check if your motherboard support XMP memory profiles and configure the BIOS to use the XMP memory profile to get 3200 speeds.

Product description

Our largest aperture SpaceProbe reflector telescope is the niftiest Newtonian reflector on an equatorial mount we've seen in a long time. The Orion SpaceProbe 130ST EQ Reflector Telescope is a step up from the standard SpaceProbe 130 EQ for the more serious beginning or intermediate stargazer who wants additional performance, particularly for targeting deep-sky objects. Just what's so nifty about the Orion SpaceProbe 130ST Equatorial Reflector Telescope? The answer is best described as short and sweet. First, the short. This ST, or Short Tube, version of the SpaceProbe 130 reflector is indeed more compact than the standard model. The 130ST reflector telescope's optical tube measures 24 inches long compared to 33 inches on the standard 130. The focal length of the ST's 130mm (5.1inch) primary mirror is 650mm (f/5), yielding a wider field of view and brighter images for a given telescope eyepiece focal length. That brings us to sweet. The 130mm aperture primary is a diffraction-limited parabolic mirror, the same type used on much larger reflector telescopes costing many times as much. On a short-focal-length design like this one, a parabolic mirror is a must for focusing incoming light to a point and delivering sharp, detailed images. Moreover, the secondary mirror is held in an advanced holder with thin 0.5mm metal vanes, to reduce diffraction spikes and light loss. These features combined with the included 25mm (26x power) and 10mm (65x power) Sirius Plossl telescope eyepieces and quick-release 6x30 achromatic finder scope make this one sweet optical system for astronomy! The SpaceProbe 130ST EQ reflector telescope also includes a collimation cap and center-marked primary mirror for easy optical alignment. The Orion SpaceProbe 130ST telescope comes on a sturdy and precise EQ-2 equatorial mount with dual setting circles and slow-motion hand controls.

• This 5.1" aperture reflector telescope gathers an ample amount of light for great views of the planets and Moon, as well as brighter galaxies, nebulas, and star clusters
• Short 24" long optical tube design for easy portability and fast f/5 focal ratio for pleasing wide-field performance makes the SpaceProbe 130ST EQ a very versatile telescope the whole family can enjoy
• Sturdy EQ-2 equatorial telescope mount and adjustable tripod allows manual slow-motion tracking of celestial objects as they appear to migrate across the night sky
• Complete assembled telescope weighs just 27 lbs. for convenient transport
• Includes two 1.25" Sirius Plossl eyepieces (25mm and 10mm), 6x30 finder scope, 1.25" rack and pinion focuser, tripod accessory tray, collimation cap, Starry Night astronomy software, and more!

User questions & answers

Question:	Can you see the surface of mars with this
Answer:	In a short answer, no. But let me explain. Under the best viewing conditions, this telescope is powerful enough to view Mars. You will see the red disk resolved and perhaps some fuzzy white blotches at the North and South poles, indicating the polar ice caps...again if the time is right. Even superpowerful telescopes can't do much better than that so keep that in mind. This is a great telescope.
Question:	What is the maximum magnification of this telescope
Answer:	Magnification is the focal length of the scope (in this case 650mm) divided by the focal length of the eyepiece. The shortest included eyepiece is 10mm. So with what's included the maximum is 65x. If you get shorter eyepieces or a barlow you can easily more than double that.But you'll rarely use such high magnification. Atmospheric distortions become very visible at high magnifications. It has to be a pretty clear evening for me to even WANT that much power. (On most nights the limiting factor is the viewing conditions, not the telescope...)
Question:	Can you see stars with this telescope
Answer:	Depends on what you mean by "see stars". If you want to see details in distant stars or discern some kind of size, NO. All optical telescopes will resolve stars to point-like light sources. You should be able to see the color of a star more clearly, like the red of Betelgeuse or blue of Rigel. You could also see both stars in binary pairs, but you will not see any more detail than point-like light sources of various colors.
Question:	I'm just starting this great hobby which one is better the Orion skyquest xt8 or the spaceprobe 130st Thanks
Answer:	The thing about telescopes is none are perfect. Each has its pros and cons and you should buy the one that suits your needs best depending on what type of viewing you hope to do. They are both good beginner telescopes and being relatively large reflectors, you will be able to see plenty of great stuff. I will compare them for you so that you can make a good decision.The XT8 is a Dobsonian meaning it sits on the ground so there is no tripod to lug around and care for. If you are tall then you will have to bend over to look through the Dobs eyepiece unless you bring a large crate or surface to set it on. Also, the XT8 has what is called an altazimuth mount. This means you can only move the telescope up/down and rotate left/right. You'd think that is all is needed, but this makes even finding objects difficult and tracking (or staying on them as you view) even more difficult if not impossible for a beginner. On the other hand, the Spaceprobe comes with what is known as an equatorial mount. With a slight learning curve you can avoid the extraordinary hassle of dealing with an altazimuth mount by simply aligned the Spaceprobe to the north star ONCE (at the start of each and every viewing session) and then finding and tracking stars and objects is very very easy and effortless. It allows you to not even have to think about the issue of tracking objects. In case you aren't aware, when you view objects you have to move the telescope ever so slightly to keep it in view, because as the Earth moves the object appears to move out of view. It gets more pronounced at higher magnification. That is why I brought up this issue and compared the two scopes. Frankly, for this issue I would recommend the Spaceprobe. However, both of these can be fitted with a computerized motor, although I don't know how the XT8 would use one, which would make finding and tracking objects not an issue at all, but it costs a lot to upgrade them like this. Lastly, note that most people will say that EQ mounts are only necessary for astrophotography, but I honestly disagree for the above reasons. I've had both alt./az. and EQ mounts and I'll never use an alt./az. mount again, but that is just me. Now, lets look at the next topic.Dobsonians usually have a large focal length and that is the case here. Although the SkyQuest does come in a 6 inch as well as an 8 inch while the SpaceProbe has 5.1 inches. When it comes to reflectors, the aperture is what matters most. A larger aperture will gather more light and so in principle you can see fainter objects more easily with an 8 inch aperture. Since area goes like the square of radius, the 8 inch will gather 2.46 times more light. Since I don't know the focal length of the XT8 I can't compare their focusing and fastness capabilities. Also, try to never get a spherical primary mirror. The Spaceprobe has a longer (ie not the ST which stands for short tube) version--the 130 EQ--which uses a spherical mirror but has a longer tube. The 130ST has a parabolic primary mirror which is much better than a spherical one. You get cleaner more crisp images since you avoid spherical aberration. Now, bigger isn't always better. There are several things which will limit what you can see. The first is light pollution. If you live in or anywhere near a city, big or small, you won't be able to use much of the power that either can offer. You can always travel 30-45 minutes away from the city and that should be good enough to do some great viewing. I stay in my backyard and that is fine for viewing the moon and bright planets, but anything else would be hard to do. Secondly, there is the problem of "seeing". The atmosphere rarely stands still. There are so many layers of atmosphere at different temperatures and humidity that it causes a shimmering or shaking. The proverbial twinkle twinkle little star is actually a curse to astronomers. The twinkle is caused by the shaky atmosphere. If you try to pump up the power of either scope, but especially the bigger XT8, you will get a blurry blob of what could have been beautiful. On great nights, you can see a lot of amazing stuff with both scopes (Jupiter shows its gas bands and the 4 Galilean moons, Saturn and its amazing rings are clearly visible with the Cassini division too and some of its moons like Titan, the moon is exquisite with not just craters and mountain ranges, but also the texture is amazing. The Spaceprobe made me feel like I was hovering over the moon at just a half a mile because I could see so much detail). If you have great seeing and go far from the city, then you can probably notice a little bit of a difference between the two scopes, but if you are a beginner then I highly doubt that you could tell the difference or even know what to look for to discern a difference. With deep sky objects the XT8 in principle will make them seem a litter bigger, but not by much. It will gather more light, but not so much that the nebulae or galaxy looks like it does in famous Hubble images. In fact, unless you become a well-versed astrophotographer there is no telescope you can buy as a beginner that will show you large bright colorful images of nebulae and galaxies. I looked through my Spaceprobe at the Orion nebulae--as an astrophysicist and well seasoned night sky observer I knew what to expect. What I saw was a faint greyish green blob. I could make out that I was looking at a nebulae, but in darkness the eye is incapable of discerning color from faint objects. If you want great pictures of nebulae and galaxies then it takes a LOT of learning and practice and MONEY, but eventually you can use filters and trackers and special cameras to do long exposures and get a compiled image of a DSO which is significantly more beautiful than you can see with your eye. Only in that case would it really matter having a larger Dobsonian instead of the spaceprobe. There is so much more to discuss, but I think I will summarize now. The slightly smaller Spaceprobe will require some slight learning (you have to polar align it every time you view, but it gets super easy after the first 4 tries), but when you get used to that it becomes very convenient since as you view you simply tweak the RA nob and you are ready to keep absorbing the celestial beauty. Once you get any object in view you are going to want to stare at it and stare at it because you can't look away from its awesomeness. So I just keep my hand on the RA nob and tweak it slightly every few seconds to keep it in the middle of the eyepiece. The XT8 I don't think has this ability unless you upgrade it to have a tracker if it even can do that I don't know. That is the only thing I don't know for sure about the XT8 by the way. The tripod makes it easier to be stable and look through if you are tall, but then it is more of a nuisance to carry around whereas the TX8 is more compact and can be carried in a special bag. You can see plenty with BOTH and what you see is highly highly dependent on how good the atmospheric conditions are and where you live. However, under the most ideal circumstances you might be able to get slightly more brightness from the XT8 due to its larger aperture and longer focal length. In terms of stunning views of DSOs, they will both seem very similar to the beginner's eye and the full potential of the XT8 won't be realized without lots of special extra gear like trackers, filters, and cameras. Both of these could make good scopes for beginning astrophotographers which is a great way to develop. Photography is difficult but very rewarding and both scopes have the ability to become good astrophotography scopes, but I'm getting ahead of myself here. In conclusion, I would say that I only can give the information off the top of my head and you should do more research. But in the end all you need to know is what do you want from a telescope? What type of things do you want to see and do you live in a place where there are city lights? Clouds are very often present like northern California? Or fog? Smog? Any of these could derail all of your plans for easy viewing and the atmosphere is unpredictable and you just have to know how to deal with what you are dealt (i.e. you have to know what eyepiece you should use based off of poor atmosphere, medium, average, or great atmospheric conditions). If you know what you want from a scope, that will help you determine which pros and cons matter most/least to you in each case. Good luck and I wish you many clear skies! Let me know if you have any more questions!

Orion SpaceProbe 130ST Equatorial Reflector Telescope

The Orion SpaceProbe 130ST reflector telescope is perfect for the more serious beginner or intermediate stargazer. With a 130 millimeter parabolic primary mirror, the 130ST provides great views of deep-sky objects on the included EQ-2 mount and stable tripod.

The Orion SpaceProbe 130ST telescope comes on a sturdy and precise EQ-2 equatorial mount with dual setting circles and slow-motion hand controls. After a simple polar-alignment procedure, the EQ-2 mount allows you to easily track celestial objects as they appear to migrate across the night sky, so you can observe them in detail. The adjustable-height aluminum tripod is strong yet lightweight and includes an accessory tray so you can keep eyepieces, flashlights, and other accessories close by while using the reflector telescope.

The relatively compact SpaceProbe 130ST EQ weighs just 27 pounds once assembled. It's an easy telescope to take out to your favorite stargazing spot, whether just outside the back door or in a more distant location away from streetlights and light pollution. If you're looking for a better-quality first telescope or a nicely portable telescope to complement your big Dobsonian, you'll love the Orion SpaceProbe 130ST EQ Reflector Telescope.
