Hello,
This is my first post on the site so not sure if I'll explain my problem well but here it goes. I recently bought an ssd for my laptop (Inspiron 15). After a couple hours of working on it I formatted it to NTFS and installed Windows 10 successfully. I started installing a game on it to see if it was going up to speed but during the download I got a black screen saying 'disk read error'. I then restarted the laptop but was given the same screen. I restarted it a couple times after that and eventually the bios simply wouldn't recognize the ssd. No disk read error anymore but rather it says 'no bootable device'. I checked the bios and my ssd vanished from its general specs. It says no hdd detected but it was detected before. I thought it was a faulty cable or possibly even motherboard but when I attached an hdd to the laptop it successfully recognized it. Any idea what could be the problem?
Thank you,
