QUOTE(NightFelix @ Mar 11 2015, 11:33 AM) 250GB Samsung EVO 850 @ US Amazon 99.00$ only. (30% discount from its original 149$) thanks for sharing this but my question is, does it cover warranty in Malaysia so that I don't have to send back to US if something happen to it? so far in my mind I know intel 730 and sandisk extreme cover int warranty... |

Sifu, I installed my windows on my Intel 530. So far so good.
But recently I can't search any Windows update, nor update my windows security center. Yesterday I was playing Dota 2 (installed in the same ssd) and it just suddenly hang and I power off it and now when I start up my pc. It only goes to Windows repair and end up a black screen with my mouse cursor. Can I say if ssd causes this and can I rma it only with the ssd and receipt? I lost the box.. |

QUOTE(horns @ Apr 15 2015, 05:39 PM) er what made you think it's the issue caused by ssd, and not os- or software- or other hardware-related? HI it's just my suspect, I had done clean format just now. The windows seem to be not bootable (my motherboard can detect the sad though) and leave blank black after the windows logo i believe you can do rma with the ssd and receipt only. (not sure because i never do rma before)  If it's software I don't think I can't boot even after clean format |

QUOTE(horns @ Apr 15 2015, 08:40 PM) blank black screen? may i know your pc's specs? which windows version is this? Windows 8.1 Pro student edition Bukan pirateso now the ssd contains only os that was not yet personalized? Intel xeon 1231 v3 Gigabyte h97n WiFi Gigabyte 7970 gc 8gb ram 650W psu Yup it only contain the os which I didn't ever boot into it yet.. Black screen is after the windows logo and the loading, after the windows logo is gone. My screen just left nothing. One thing to note is about my ssd before I format. From what I see before I format, it shows 11x gb of free space where my sad capacity is only 120gb. This is totally impossible because I have my system and games inside... Very headache now haihs |

QUOTE(horns @ Apr 15 2015, 09:12 PM) the os installation is uefi or legacy bios mode? it sounded like uefi issue to me. can you check in the bios if the first boot order is windows boot manager or something else? I am not sure about the os installation but what i found from my motherboard is I ticked "uefi and legacy" if all failed maybe you can try to use commandline diskpart to clean up all partitions and start over. I just used diskpart to clean up and reinstalling Windows again.. Hope it works  BTW I found out that Intel ssd has a very good aluminium finish at the front plate. But back plate is like a lot of scratches and imperfect finish. Is it common to all ssd? I know it won't affect the performance but it looks ugly imo |
