Hello World!
I got one of these ADATA SU655 SSD drives a couple of months ago. Since then, I went through a broken MBR twice after seeing this "No bootable medium found" out of the blue! First time It wasn't beyond the realm of possibility to fix it up and I ended up reinstalling the windows! Second time I couldn't repair the bootloader, again. I booted into some recovery suites (paragon, minitool...) to backup data on my C drive, and saw a new problem had came up! The data transfer speed slowed down to a few KB/s after a couple of seconds copying got started. I reinstalled the Windows on my old HDD, booted into it and did some tests using SSD speed test utilities that approved the previous findings :-( (I will share the results when I arrive home).
I did a few searches striving to find what's exactly going on here; replaced the SDD's SATA and power cables, switched the SATA ports, updated the bios (ASUS P8Z77V LX)... didn't work out. Now here is the peculiar thing; everything's been ok since 2 hours ago I connected the SSD to a friend's PC! And the old HDD works like a charm on my own PC.
Also, the previous MSI B75A-G43 mainboard was replaced two months ago with the current ASUS P8Z77V LX as an workaround to some BSOD's I went through from time to time (I had tried to fix it up by replacing RAM and PSU, before). It wasn't until then that I realized I mistakenly had connected PCIe 6+2 pin connector to the EATX 12V port on MSI mainboard :-(
Any help, guess or comment would be appreciated. What's been happening to these poor parts? :-(
