Solve : SSD missing?

1.	Solve : SSD missing?
Answer» Hi, first time posting. I have a SSD drive inserted at my DVD drive, I mean where it does but I took it off and placed the SSD instead. Not so sure about the size, probably 500GB. It just randomly disappears. It doesn't come back after while. When it does, the system freezes for a while, goes back to normal, then, shortly after, it gives a BSoD. The error code is 'DRIVER_OVERRAN' or something like that. I don't really remember because that didn't happen for a while, and it didn't come back. I also have Ubuntu dualboot installed. I don't think I can give much more information except that it is on the E: drive. Edit: The drive can be seen from Ubuntu, but not Windows.Is the OS on this SSD ? ? If it's the E: drive i'll assume other HDD's are in place... Post a screen pic of Disk Management so we can have a looksee. Meanwhile i would swap in a new SSD data cable...Quote from: patio on December 20, 2018, 03:51:45 PM Is the OS on this SSD ? ? If it's the E: drive i'll assume other HDD's are in place... Post a screen pic of Disk Management so we can have a looksee. Meanwhile i would swap in a new SSD data cable... Also, I just checked and E: doesn't appear on Ubuntu anymore. I would like to add that this problem started occuring more since I installed Ubuntu. I also made sure of the HDD part before. I changed it to E: because of that, it was D: before that.Why not rename it back to D:...re-boot in both OS's and see what results you get ? ? You also never ANSWERED whether there is an OS installed on it....or not. PS your screenshot is incomplete...expand it to FULL screen so it shows all info...Can't change it back since it isn't currently showing up ANYWHERE, I changed it while it was visible. There's no OS on it, just my stuff that I don't have place for on my C:, also the downloads. It is inserted from the DVD slot, I took the reader off and placed it in. Not really sure about that, since my friend did it for me. I don't understand hardware. I do the software part.Hi Some laptops when running Windows don't even show the dvd drive until a disk is inserted. I wonder if this is the case with your SSD in a DVD drive adapter. Perhaps if the LAPTOP has a usb3 port, NORMALLY blue you could have your friend put the ssd into a USB case. Then both ubuntu and windows will be able to use it.
