I have a Samsung 840 ssd and i'm having major boot problems. Was using the computer last night and it froze. I restarted it and it said the disk is corrupt and needs to repiared. System repair runs and then it says there is a major disk error. If you restart it it shows it as a hard drive in uefi bios but then doesnt boot. I tried changing cables (both sata and power) and changed sata connectors on the motherboard and nothing. 

 

Any advice?

 

Cheers

RMA it to Samsung which is a very reputable company.

Thanks! Yes I think it is dead. Too bad, they die so fast with no warning sometimes
