When I plug it in I get an error and I try all of them. I even try using ones from my other SSD and I get "3rd master". And check bios it shows everything like the storage. Should buy a USB one or not? SSD(SK Hynix S31 SSD)

That error shown above would seem more indicative of the mainboard dropping all of it's BIOS settings , similar to those symptoms that occur with a CMOS battery failure... (but, perhaps that is being induced whenever a faulty SSD is connected, assuming no BIOS issues with whichever SSD is used)

Perhaps you can test the SSD in any other desktop to be sure...; if issues develop there as well, you're done wondering..

As it is a fairly old socket 1366 board, it could be a BIOS/hardware recognition/interfacing issue...; if that's the case, the SSD will likely work fine elsewhere.
