@MrRaven do not listen to him, that will void any warranty you have on there. You are correct in that the T7 is made to be used externally via usb. There might be something wrong with the internal connector if cables are loose in there. HAve you tried contacting Samsung to see if you can get...

Magician never works via USB, not counting the recently added support for their Portable SSDs.

I called their USA support this morning, tech support told me they have recently heard about the issue and that they are currently collecting data and investigating it.

Sounds more they're not further addressing because because their RMAs are done through a third party, in the Neowin writer's case, he's in Europe so it's done by a company called Hanaro, and they most likely just have factory tools and instructions provided by Samsung and how to test the units...

Looks like Microsoft released KB5004237 yesterday which "updates an issue that might make printing to certain printers difficult. This issue affects various brands and models, but primarily receipt or label printers that connect using a USB port." My zebra printers are working now after...

At the moment no idea. Spent all of Wednesday with the head of our IT department trying stuff on one of the affected computers, and one of our other guys contacted Microsoft and they said they are aware of the issue with Type 3 printers like the Zebra and to just uninstall the update and pause...

this update broke all our Zebra label printers in my job. Have had to go to every PC in the company and uninstall the update and pause updates.

does it do the same thing if you plug in the drive into another system, or externally?

Usually happens when your SATA controller is set to RAID mode in the BIOS. Check your BIOS and if it is, do the following to switch to AHCI (edit If you're on Windows 10): Run MSCONFIG in Windows Enable Safe Boot (minimal) Reboot into UEFI/BIOS and change to AHCI Boot up into safe mode Run...

no problem! I'd advise calling over email because i'd assume with the 3 day weekend due to Christmas, and if they got to leave early on Christmas Eve, they probably have a ton of emails to go through.

The drive uses hardware level encryption that is enabled through the software...if you forgot your password, your pretty much SOL on getting that data back as the password is stored on the drive itself (its been a while, but i believe in the controller). Only way to unlock it is to do a Factory...

Have you plugged it internally anywhere? If so, does it show up at 500 as well, or 3.8TB or w/e? Also, where did you buy it from? I remember back when 1tb SSDs first came around, some bad actors that sell on Amazon (as in the products that aren't "shipped and sold by Amazon") and especially...

your kinda stuck to the will of the gods with consumer brand SSDs and power outtages. enterprise type drives tend to have some kind of PLP, power loss protection, i don't think any consumer drives do, unless that's changed in the last 2-3 years.

dude, what isyour obsession with ebay? just buy from Amazon UK
