So for the past, 8montha or so I’ve been running the 840 without issue, install my games here only, randomly last night I went to rebooted my pc, when it went to the reboot screen it stuck there for about ~fifteen minutes then rebooted while I was away from the keys, but now it doesn’t see the 840.. not in my computer, not in disk management, not in disk partition, not even in the BIOS.. I’ve tried different cables different sata slots, tried to update firmware but Samsung magician doesn’t even see the drive.. pretty sure I updated the firmware already butyeah.. so I had some issues when upgrading to the h700i tower from an S340 elite so I had to reformat and yesterday I was just finishing drivers and windows updates, thought I had them all done that morning, have read windows updates can cause an issue.. but.....

I’m leaning towards the ssd finally failed, please give me any suggestions.
Thank you in advance.

If it's not seen at all in any of environments , and you tried different cable it has most likely failed.

Hi,

I think Samsung 840 died. To check it do 1 thing, make 840 as primary. Remove Samsung 850 for a while.

Before taking this step, install a fresh set of cables to the SSD. Also change sata slots on motherboard.

Check if it boots up and shows anything.

Or try it in another computer.

I hope that helps.
