NITROSENSE is Acer's built-in control software that lets you monitor and manage the laptop's performance. It allows you to check CPU/GPU temps, adjust fan speed, and switch performance modes - especially useful for gaming or heavy workloads.
Disks 0 and 1 were wiped during the full PC reset, then formatted again in Disk Management, and finally cleaned using DiskPart. They’re intentionally left unallocated for privacy, and you can initialize them however you like.
Disk 2 was fully wiped during the complete PC reset. I actually performed the full reset twice at different times to make sure all data was removed and the system would be in a true “like‑new, out‑of‑the‑box” state on first startup.
The laptop has a clean install of Windows 11 Home, with no accounts or data left on it. It’s fully reset and ready to use.
Cash only, no trades. Meet in public space during daylight hours only.
