SSD issue. Is it really dead or ???

[Srujan_Hemanth]

I bought ASUS FX505GD laptop. It's been 10 days, it was working fine but when I turned yesterday evening the laptop doesn't bootup.

I tried installing windows but the SSD won't showup when selecting the partition where windows must be installed. It is INTEL SSD 512GB.

The ssd shows up in the BOOTMENU but not in the windows installation media.

I even tried reparing/resetting the windows startup through installation media but it just doesn't work.

Yep, looks like the SSD is dead. Only way to be sure is to either try another one in the same PC, or try that SSD in another PC.

If I add a HDD to my laptop will I be able to figure it out via windows?

It won't help you determine whether it's the SSD or the laptop that's faulty.

 

If you just bought it you should look at warranty service/replacement anyway.

I'm trying to find a service center near me so that I can get replacement and serviced for what I paid for.

 

Anyways thanks for the help.

The "unable to reset your PC a required drive partition is missing" error usually occurs when the MBR or BCD record is corrupted. Basically, rebuilding the boot record will resolve the issue.

First of all, you can try running a Check Disk to scan and repair all bad sectors of the hard drive.

 

If check disk does not resolve the issue, you should perform a system reset using a recovery drive. please refer to this page.
