How are you even hooking it up into a modern controller?Ģb) If that fails, and the data's really important, you're looking at all the standard data recovery tactics- and that's a whole laundry list of troubleshooting.
Lastly the OS may not be treating the SSD like an SSD.Ģa) Plug it back into the old computer and see if it's recognized. Without TRIM, the drive's performance degrades over time. Alternate answer: as noted above, you may not be getting the SSD feature set which includes TRIM support. It's very possible that you're running at only a tiny fraction of the performance of the drive. I do presume the OS boots, and if so, do a hardware benchmark. This necessitates either some very careful registry editing (where you have exactly once chance to get it right) or an OS re-build.ġb) It's bad. If it's the IDE/ACHI mode deal and you need to change modes, that's do-able but not trivial. Beyond that, you may be looking at an idiosyncrasy of the board. It should definitely not be in RAID mode. Is there any way I can either use the two USB headers to power both the four front USB ports and the card reader, or plug the card reader into a SATA port (I'd sacrifice its external USB port)? Regarding the latter, at Newegg and Amazon I see many adapters to connect devices externally (either USB-SATA or SATA-USB), but I can't find an internal USB-SATA adapter.ġa) I don't know what OS you had previously, but I assume XP? The BIOS may be set to IDE mode if so, in order to allow the SSD to boot, but it really "ought" to be in AHCI mode to take advantage of all of the SSD functions. The other header connects two of four front USB ports. The Rosewill internal card reader uses one of two internal USB headers. (I'm less interested in reusing it (as backup) then seeing what's on it and recovering anything that's not duplicated elsewhere.)ģ. The 320GB SATA is no longer recognized at all. The Mushkin SSD, formerly recognized as such, is now identified in BIOS as "Generic - Compact Flash 1.00" If I can't fix this problem, how serious is it?Ģ.

On adding back both sticks, one at a time, the PC recognized both.ġ. When I pulled the two memory sticks, the PC beeped. Nor did disconnecting the SSD allow me to get to BIOS.įortunately, I found dataman's post in the "Dead motherboard?" thread. Disconnecting everything except the SSD did not work. When I turned on the PC, nothing beeped and the monitor screen remained blank. By pressing F12, I could get it to boot from the Mushkin SSD, but changing the boot order in BIOS setup did not stick.

During the course of installing drivers from Gigabyte, however, the boot drive order somehow changed. My initial build was successful, except that the 320GB WD IDE drive was reported as not initialized.
