Ssd not being seen HELP

[RobertJP]

Hi guys I've recently been having a slight problem with one of my drives , I have a corsair 240gig ssd as a primary boot drive and over the past few days it's been playing up , it looks like it's just not being found when I boot into windows it just says boot from drive or insert installation disk , when I check the bios I can see my other hdd (main storage drive) but not the ssd but then I unplug the drive and reconnect it it boots fine , I check the corsair ssd software to see if the drive was failing but it's telling me the drive is in perfect health , I've tried changing to another port on the motherboard but received the same problem I'm going to try changing the cables to some others but beyond that it stumpt.

Maybe the lock on one of the connectors comes loose or something. Try new cables, if that doesn't work it could be the actual connector on the back of the drive, have a look at the lock see if it's worn down.

go to disk management and scroll to see your SSD

it will be like unallocated disk space

make a new volume

tada
