I recently removed 2 extra SSD from my system and it no longer boots. The monitors look like they are getting nothing as they are just black. I dont even get the beep that i used to on boot.

Which 2 'extra' SSDs did you remove? Was one the boot drive? Does it boot when you put them back in?

Should still get the beep on boot. Sounds like something else has been pulled/damaged while removing the drives.

Good chance it's the RAM or GPU, but it's very difficult to diagnose.

You should still get a POST without any drives in place, the same can't be said with the CPU, GPU or RAM.

I have already formatted them for another build
