    Hi,

    I just reinstalled my windows, and was wondering how to enable the fastboot again? I added the files into the directory but am unsure of how to edit the .dll file so the control center will recognize it. I opened it in notepad but not sure where to paste the vvalues.

    It is literally 1 or 2 seconds that you save. For the potential inconvenience that Fast Boot brings in especially if you're at a docked setup I'd rather leave it in TBH. Even with FB enabled however, it's actually (very slightly) slower than my SATAIII SSD'd HP's in booting. Ultimate read speed doesn't seem to be a forte of the Gen.3 drives, although overall performance is pretty nicely rounded.
