Greetings all,
My Corsair Force GT 240GB SSD has decided to suddenly not to work at all.
Yesterday it was working perfect in the laptop without any problems, and turned off perfectly. Until today when I simply powered on, the laptop couldn't read the SSD. And according to BIOS there is nothing there :s
Just to mention if I put the Force GT ssd in my external USB 2.0 enclosure it won't work, but if I use any other hard drive with the enclosure it will power up and work right away with Windows 8.1 Pro x64.
I have also put the SSD in a Asus K55A laptop, with yet again no luck in it being recognised at all in bios. As with both Alienware and Asus laptops they always give me the message:
'Check cable connection!
PXE-M0F: Exiting Intel PXE ROW.
No bootable device -- insert boot disk and press any key'
Also tried the 'power cycle' method in the laptop with no luck.
Any ideas what else I could try?
Also will be buying THIS 'Hard Drive Docking Station' within the day. Even if it doesn't work for me I can make use of it for HDD's. But a huge bonus if it works for the SSD as there's important data that could do with being recovered.
