[Gundersen_99]

Hello everyone.

Last night i found an 128GB ssd in my room. smart as i am i runned to my pc and connecteted it to my gaming pc. What i didnt think of was that the computer was running. It stopped running and when i tried connecting my ssd to a docking station it says "please insert a disk into (D"

Hey there, Gundersen_99.

So I assume your PC is working properly now and you want to see if you can use the SSD? If this is the case and you have no data to recover from it, I'd recommend that you download an SSD diagnostic tool and test the drive to see if everything's OK with it.
As for the message you're getting, you could try assigning the SSD a new drive letter, to see if that will make it show up properly. Here's how to do it: How to change the drive letter assignment in Windows.

Hope that helps. Please let me know how everything goes.

Thank you so much for answer. I tried everything, the ssd is still not possible to access. it just shows a letter and windows telling me "please install disk to D:" i talked with a friend of mine, he told me that the ssd's BIOS has been deleted when it shortcut. Do you know of anything i can do to install BIOS on the ssd again?

It sounds like the drive might have failed. The BIOS/UEFI is not stored on a drive (SSD, HDD or SSHD). It's stored on a chip on the motherboard and you can access it even if you have no drive connected, so this is not the case. I'd suggest that you contact the SSD manufacturer's customer support to see if the guys there can help out with a constructive solution. Also, I'd recommend that you try to RMA it if the drive is still under warranty.
