Hi
I purchased an SSD from eBay (new) Kingston 60gb.
Worked for a day.
While downloading Ark from steam it stoped displaying anything.
When I booted up again the SSD could not be found.
Two evenings of trouble shooting and 2 new SSD's later and a laptop.
I established that the eBay SSD cannot be found on either pc.
The new drives work on various sata ports but not on the sata port that the ebay ssd was connected to.
In summary, the eBay ssd is dead and unfinable on any device and the sata port is was connected to cannot find either of the new drives but the other ports can.
I've reset bios and had a clean install of windows 10 on both the other drives.
I'm currently in communication with the eBay supplier but do they have a responsibility to compensate me for damaging my motherboard (gigabyte z97x gaming 5)
Thanks
