Guys, I have a Surface Pro 5 in hand.
However, I can no longer boot the device up into Windows, it is always stuck on the UEFI manager.

I tried to repair it myself through Command Prompt and even attempted to use Microsoft Surface Data Eraser.
Through CMD, I cant cd into the C drive. I cant even list the volumes and partitions on the disk.
Through Data Eraser, it is telling me something is wrong with the primary disk.

I suspect there's a hardware failure with the SSD, can someone advise me?

My Surface Pro 5 SSD died after 2 years of using.

Any idea where to repair and how much its going to cost me?

gg what a bad product

I would have been fine if the device ssd died after like 5 years. But 2? Wtf microsoft

I need to iterate that microsoft is clearly aware of the problem since all new surface lineups are introducing removable ssd sticks. Bai bai microsoft, macbook here I come

despite the storage is soldered, I konform it will outlast that shitty surface. Not to mention, Apple gt official service centre

Even if I go and swap out the motherboard for my SP5, I doubt it will last. I looked up on the internet, seems like a common issue so its not worth to spend a dime to repair it...

The only choice I have now is to get a USB stick and snuck in portable Windows. At least it doesnt become a worthless shell.

Im considering selling off my SP5 with a faulty SSD (storage drive).

Everything including the screen and touchscreen functionality are all working fine, PM me if you are interested.

You can consider buying an external SSD and put Windows in and it will work just fine.
