QUOTE(ktek @ Oct 28 2020, 10:57 AM) all symptom similar which is no detect in bios. 3 in 2 months ? Maybe your hardware / mobo / power setup problem then.i guess data is alive just firmware dead. now pening to make recovery, possible ask fren to perform surgery on data IC or firmware ROM itself a wrong decision to support this brand |

if wanna save money…just get those so called "refurbished ssd" instead of getting new dramless low tier ssd.
there are seller who take out ssd from pre-built system or laptop…basically that kind of ssd is as good as new, what you need to do is just delete the partition and format it… |
