Question Windows doesn't recognize my SATA SSD ?

[Kattos]

Hello, please help.

I installed a 1TB Samsung 870 Evo SATA SSD on an empty slot and set everything up in Disk Management
on my MSI GF63 10SCXR Laptop. On the first day had no issues at all until the next day when Windows started to disconnect this SSD for some reason. It only can be seen in the BIOS and in "View Hidden Devices" in Device Manager, and it has Error 45. I've tried disconnecting and reconnecting it which works, but Windows still kept disconnecting it a few moments later?

Either the drive, port, power or cable is bad. Try different ports, different power supply cables, different data cables. Error 45 just means it's disconnected, and any disconnected devices that used to be present appear as a Hidden Device until you connect it again. After trying those, the only option is trying a different drive.
