SSD got problem again. I just don know why my whole pc freeze suddenly when playing games. After about 1 min freeze ,the pc run back normally . But after restart my pc my ssd wont be detected by bios. I saved my windows at Kingston ssd and games on Seagate hdd. Then i test using my spare Hitachi hdd to run windows and same as game on that Seagate hdd , it runs just fine. So is that indicate my ssd is going to die ? I just bought it last month. Never done any physical damage or hard writing it. I just saved windows file and some important documents (less than 2 gb) on it. 

 

Add: I realized bios will not detect the ssd after my game freeze. I didn't hard restart it . I just wait the freeze gone and restart my pc. 

Sorry my English was very bad and I tried explain the situation as good as I can 

TO FIX THIS : I keep swap the sata connector and it works for last times . But this time I tried 3 hour of swapping it still cannot fix it.

 

Motherboard: Asus H110M-D 

BIOS Version : 3805

RAM:Kingston 8 GB 2133 MHz

PSU : 450 Watt 

CPU: Intel Pentium G4560 

HDD : Seagate 500GB ( game drive ) 

           Spare Hitachi 320GB 

           Kingston A400 240GB ( Main drive - Windows,documents only ) 185 gig left

GPU: RX 560 4GB

Tried running various error checking utilities on the drive?  Or even some of Kingston's own utilities?

Checked event viewer to see if anything's happening in the background?  Task manager?

Then I'd stop dealing with it and get an RMA or exchange where you bought it if you can.  You've done reasonable troubleshooting.  About the only thing else you could be asked to try would be test it with an external adapter or another computer.

Ya, maybe I will try to use other to pc for testing it before sending it to RMA cause I need to backup my documents .

Always have an offline backup that you regularly update...don't depend on any one drive for everything if you've got something important.  Just best practice.
