Question SSD need power cycling everytime i shut down my computer

[ttuncer97]

Hi guys i have recently bought a Crucial 120GB BX500 Series Sata 6.0Gb/s 3D NAND SSD. Everytime i shut down my computer when i turn it back on it disappears from my drivers and BIOS. I need to use power cycling method to bring it back on. Is that mean my SSD is defective and should i return it? Because i don't want to power cycle everytime i shut down my computer.

Thanks

I'd recommend using a program such as SMART to check it but it's odd behaviour and does suggest that something is wrong so my advice would be to RMA it.

When i tried to RMA it they actually tested on store and it worked. So i was unable to rma it so i should solve my odd problem.
