Help boot problem

So I've been using my new pc for 6 months now (first build) and everything was running smoothly. A month ago my system wouldn't boot. I tried disconnecting my SSD which contain windows 7 and reconnecting it for connection issue. No success. Since I was not able to enter the bios because i was stuck in microcode loading (Q-code 06), I tried diconnecting only the SSD and leaving my hard drive. I was then able to enter the bios and then I tried reconnecting the SSD (while in the Bios) without succes. After a lot of research on internet, I decided to test it on my friend's computer. The SSD worked perfectly (boot and usage). So it is not a dead SSD issue. So I thought the motherboard was the problem. So I RMA'd my motherboard back to Asus. 1 week later, I received a brand new motherboard. I then thought the problem was actually the motherboard since in the small letter it was saying problem ''solved:SYSTEM FREEZE''. I plugged it back together but the same problem was still there. So I thought to myself that the SSD was the actual problem so I asked my friend to bring her SSD (which is the exact same model as mine). With her SSD I was able to enter the Bios and The SSD was visible but I was not able to boot. It came with the error: ''Please select proper boot drive...'' So now I really don't know what to do. I suspect a compatibility problem but ther has been no update whatsoever since I've first boot it (and it also worked perfectly 6 month earlier). Research doesn't tell anything. Please help me out because I'm really out of Idea. Thx in advance for the help.

Change the data cable (use the one from your hdd) change the port on the mobo. This is the first thing you should try when having issues with drive detectection. You can try changing the power cable, i have seen some shorts on the 5v rail in the past

I've already tried that and my friend's SSD is detected in the Bios (She is using the same SSD has mine)
