PROBOOK and SAMSUNG SSD 850 EVO DISK problems

I have connected HP ProBook 470 G2 i7 processor with SAMSUNG SSD 850 EVO 500 GB via SATA3 to USB3 adapter (STLAB). SSD  disk is not detected by windows 7 (win explorer) neither by samsung magition SW.
Is it possible to solve this.

Does the drive show in Disk Management?
Does it show as 'offline'? This sometimes happens with 'external' drives.
If it is 'offline' just right click 'offline' and chose 'online' from the menu.
Hope that helps.

  • Is my "Samsung SSD 850 EVO 500GB" defective (or just incompatible with MacBookPro5,5 Yosemite 10.10.2 - 13 inch mid-2009)

    Is the Samsung 850 EVO not compatible with this MacBook Pro? Has anyone installed it and found it to work fine for a few months?
    Has anyone faced boot-partition corruptions, problems when installing Yosemite updates with this SSD - on reboot, SSD partition became unmountable for me after the installing Yosemite update 10.10.2 (14C1510).
    I am trying to understand whether
    mine happens to be a defective drive - in which case I have the option of getting a refund from seller and ordering a replacement (same make+model), OR
    I should return this one and go for a Crucial/OWC/other SSD
    Details:
    MacBookPro5,5 Yosemite 10.10.2
    Samsung SSD 850 EVO 500GB
    I purchased this drive and installed it in my MacBookPro about a week ago.
    Since then I have repeatedly run system-reported data corruptions on the SSD.
    One obvious sign of the corruption is that on powering-on the laptop, it will stall for a long time (5 to 30 minutes! - normally it would boot up in about 30 seconds) after the grey/black Apple-logo and status bar appear on the white-background boot-screen.
    Another way I see this is by running Disk Utility's 'verify disk' operation.. Reports serious errors and asks me to reboot in recovery-mode with Cmd-R to repair the partition.
    I have erased and re-installed the OS (Yosemite) several times on it already because sometimes the Recovery-Partition's Disk Utility cannot repair the errors - asks me to backup and erase+format. The repair operation does not always succeed *.
    This is happening often and without any pattern **.
    Several times on the latest install, I have booted up in single-user mode and run fsck -fy: till yesterday, this was still occasionally finding and successfully repairing issues (after which I run fsck a couple more times to confirm).
    Seems to be running fine today.
    * I am re-installing off of a TimeMachine backup.
    But I don't think that is causing the trouble: verify-disk on the original backup reports no errors, and even the computer itself passes "verify"/"fsck -fy" several times over before failing in the same way again after an hour or 2 of actual use.
    ** On one occasion, after an OS update (latest OS X security patches) succeeded and reboot completed, verify-disk again asked for the Cmd-R recovery-mode repair - which failed to repair the errors.
    Also, if I as much as launch the Yosemite installer while booted up, then even after quitting (without proceeding beyond the initial screen), the SSD fails completely again requiring to be erased. Happened twice with installers involved, but corruptions even without installers did happen.

    I loaded the Samsung 850 into my 2012 i5 Macbook Pro and it's been working well since I installed a few days ago.  The only concern I have is that on boot up I get a white screen for around 30 seconds before it begins the startup with the apple and progress bar.  That's odd, because when I installed an SSD on my older 2009 Macbook a few years ago that laptop booted up almost instantaneously when I pushed the power button. 
    I loaded the system on the SSD by cloning, rather than using Time Machine and it worked without a hitch.  Used Carbon Copy Cloner in trial mode after formatting the SSD with Disk Utilities.  Not sure if your problem may stem from using Time Machine.  The cloning apps will usually adjust the data on the new drive based on available space, so if your SSB is a different size than the original HDD, it would automatically correct.  Not sure about TIme Machine.
    I'll keep researching about the startup lag when I turn on my Macbook Pro with the 850.  Seems it should boot up right away with the SSD, but maybe it's because the 850 uses the new vertical stacking configuration.  That's the only thing I can think of that's different from the last SSD I installed in my old Macbook.

  • Samsung Serie 850 EVO, will it work on my macbook pro late 2011?

    Hi all,
    I have a MBP late 2011 13", and I have found a nice offer for a samsung serie 850 evo, so I would like to upgrade my MBP with this SSD. But I can not find an specific answer for this Samsung SSD model, everyone seems to have upgrade it to the 840 or 850 pro :S
    Does anyone know if it will work fine with my Mac?
    Thaks!
    Pedro.

    This seems to be a popular choice, however:
    http://www.cnet.com/products/samsung-ssd-850-evo/
    "  There's not much to complain about the drive except its Samsung Magician software, which is required for RAPID mode and other features and is available only for Windows. That means other platforms, such as Mac, Linux or game consoles, won't be able to take advantage of most of the drive's features."

  • Samsung SSD 840 EVO not detected in MacBook Pro 2012.

    Hello,
    In January I had a problem with my computer where it would overheat, the battery would die quickly, and the overall computer speed was slower than a turtle for even the most basic functions. I brought my computer to a MacMan retailer and they fixed the issue. I then got my MBP back and it worked fine for about a month. It then repeated the same symptoms it had before I got it fixed. I talked to my roommate and did some research and ended up purchasing the Samsung SSD 840 EVO 250gb to replace my Hard Drive.
    I transferred all my data to the new SSD and then installed the SSD to the internal bay where the hard drive sits without any problems. After the SSD was in place I booted up the computer and I got a "flashing folder with question mark." The SSD was not internally recognized by my computer. I then tried to put my Hard Drive back in to see if it would be recognized and it was not. However, both the SSD and Hard Drive are externally recognized via USB enclosure. I have been working on this for a couple days and am getting frustrated.
    I have tried a number of fixes I thought would surely work. I reformatted the SSD to the appropriate Mac format that every forum and website recommend: Mac OS Extended (Journaled) and that does not work. I have reinstalled OS X Yosemite, I have tried updating the SSD Firmware through USB. Nothing has worked yet. I have tried using Apple's internet recovery system and neither drive is recognized when inside the computer. My best assumption but least favorable is the Cable within the MacBook Pro that connects to the Hard Drive/SSD is faulty. I fear that it may be faulty since now neither the SSD or Hard Drive is detected when they are installed in the MacBook Pro, only when external.
    Can anyone please help me figure out what could be wrong? If you need more information just ask and I will do my best to answer them to your satisfaction. Anyone input, conclusion, or direction would be greatly appreciated!
    Thank You for your time and knowledge!

    You have already defined the probable cause, the internal SATA cable.  For verification, take the MBP to an Apple store genius bar for a FREE evaluation.  It is not an expensive repair, even if done by Apple.
    Ciao.

  • Block level backup engine Samsung SSD 840 EVO partition labeled "data"

    Replaced the hard drive in my Dell 1545 laptop with a Samsung SSD 840 EVO.
    Everything beautiful.
    Am running Windows 8.1 - again everything beautiful.
    Thought I would run "System Image Backup" (off the File History page).
    failed - Microsoft error code 0x80780119
     because Samsung Migration tool created a first partition labeled "data"
    (don't know whose data this might be suspect it has nothing to do with the OS but is required for the SSD, perhaps for MBR boot purposed.)
    This "data" partition is very small and 99% full: no room for the VSS backup requires.
    Bypassed that problem with:
    PS C:\> wbAdmin start backup -backupTarget:H: -include:C:\
    which runs perfectly, except for the warning,
    " Note: the list of volumes included for backup does not include all the volumes that contain operating system components. This backup cannot be used to perform a system recovery. However. you can recover other items if the destination media type Supports
    it."

    Hi,
    Glad to hear that you've found a workground to backup the data and thanks for sharing the experience here. Regarding to the Samsung "data" partition, yes, as you mentioned, it is related with Samsung Migration software, so I think members working
    on Samsung will be familiar with this partition.

  • T500 and Samsung SSD 840 ATA Password: ERROR 0200

    Hi,
    I upgraded my T500 with a Samsung SSD 840. Works great until I set a harddisk password. My password is accepted but this I get an error message from bios:
    "ERROR 0200: Failure Fixed Disk 0"
    Pressing ESC clears this error and boot continues. Any idea how to fix this? Bios is already upgraded to the latest version, the ssd firmware too.

    I the bios order makes no difference. I went from a working password protected Intel X25-M (120gb) that worked with password to a Samsung 840 Pro that didn't. The same setup, just different drive in my x200s before starting to experiment. I think there is an interaction in the x200/t400 generation bios and the Samsung 840 pro's firmware that requires Lenovo to fix. The Samsung will work with disk bios password in a X60s but not X61, which is consistent with the problems also in the T61's.
    I've tried just about every combo of options (boot order, passphrase, setting the password on an x60) without any luck. So I've concluded that something in the Core 2 Duo systems bios is not compatible (ie Lenovo has a bios/firmware bug). From what I've read the x220's & x230's work with the Samsung 840 Pro.

  • Does anybody have experiences with a Samsung SSD 840 Evo for a MacBook Pro?

    I heard that the Samsung SSDs 840 Basic and Pro have problems with MacBook Pros and die after a few weeks. I bought my MacBook Pro 13 in April 2011 and want to upgrade it with a SSD now.

    Partitioning makes no sense. You have a drawer full of stuff. Split it into two smaller drawers and you have two smaller drawers full of stuff.
    Decide what you can store on external storage - your iPhoto/Aperture/Lightroom libraries can all be stored on externals, as can your iTunes Libraries and so on. Do you need to carry 30 gigs of movies with you all the time? You  can get portable drives the size of an iPhone these days.

  • Dell PERC H710P and Samsung SSD 840 Pro RAID performance

    Hi. I have some questions about Dell PERC H710P.
    I have a Dell PERC H710P RAID controller and 8 Samsung SSD 840 Pros.
    I created virtual drive on 8x256GB Samsung SSD 840 Pro in RAID10.
    And tried DD test (bs=512kb, count=20000) in CentOS 6.3.
    But I had just around 370MB/sec.
    Is there any problem of my test?
    Please reply.
    Thanks.

    ive also had trouble with the Samsung 840 pro (256 GB) and my Dell Perc card. i have the smaller one the H310 though.
    sent the drive back to samsung (their tech sup is horrid) and got it back. still an issue.
    i think that it just a Dell mobo issue. we are waiting on ours to be replaced.

  • HP H8-1500z and Samsung SSD - BIOS sees the drive, Win 8.1 doesn't

    I'm trying to help a friend (no really!)  I've worked in IT support, but this has me stumped so far.
    The H8-1500z has an AMD hexacore CPU, and the AMD Raid storage driver.  The Samsung Magician software has been run using a USB adapter to clone the internal HHD to the SSD drive, and it seemed to go fine.  When all else has failed, the SSD has been bootable as a USB device.  So it would seem the SSD is working OK, just not when connected to an internal SATA port.
    The current SATA config includes the internal HDD, a four-device memory card reader/writer, and now the Samsung SSD.
    The SSD is visible to the BIOS, but not to Windows 8.1.  
    I switched the BIOS from RAID (the default) to AHCI - the PC still works, but no change.  Win 8.1 updates are all installed, and the BIOS reports it's also up-to-date.  I've run the HP troubleshooter a few times--it reports it has made changes, but again, no joy.
    Samsung tech support wrote this to him:
    All Samsung Solid State Drives are compatible with AMD processors. The only known issue with AMD machines is with the Samsung SSD Magician software, in which the native AMD SATA port drivers are not compatible with the SSD Magician software. To remedy this, we simply ask that you install Microsoft SATA port drivers or NVIDIA SATA port drivers and the issue will be resolved.
    We've scoured the Micrsoft site and Google on how to "simply" do this.  Comparing the driver names for my Crucial SSD drives and his, the three files are the same.  I think he already has the drivers installed.  The Device Manager lists the "Microsoft Strorage Space Controller."  He did attempt disabling the  AMD drivers by renaming them; the PC was unbootable.  Thankfully he was able to boot off the SSD with USB and put the filenames back and restore bootability.
    I've suggested he disconnect the memory card reader to test.  He hasn't tried it yet.  I'm thinking of bringing my rig over, and seeing if my homebuilt can see his drive, and if his HP can see one of my SSD drives.
    We've been at this for several weeks, and I've spent hours on this site and Googling to try and figure out why the BIOS would see the drive, but not Windows.
    I really hope someone can point us in the right direction.
    Many thanks,
    Steve 

    Hello @SteveM27,
    Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the HP Forums I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More.
    I understand that you are attempting to get your friend's desktop computer to recognize the new SSD in Windows 8.1, and I would be happy to help you!
    Since the SSD is visible from the BIOS, I recommend following the steps in this document on How To Change Drive Letter In Windows 8.1. This should help the Windows operating system see the SSD.

  • My mid 2012 Macbook Pro get a 4HDD/11/40000000: Sata(0,0).I just upgraded to a samsung 850 evo 500 gb ssd and i used super duper to clone it?

    I had no problems with my computer until someone told me to check apple's hardware test and now this code has me worried. Should I contact samsung about this and get a replacement drive or is it just apple doing it because its not from apple. One minor problem i had is when i shut the cover and then plug it in it sometimes crashes and gives me a kernel panic when i turn it back on. I just repaired my drive in disk utility and it hasn't helped now it crashes more!
    HELP!!!!

    I read it and i have been documenting the past two times it has had a panic attack and i saved the logs it gave me

  • T520 dont boot from Samsung 850 EVO

    hello,I encountered problem when cloning original HDD to SSD (samsung SSD 850 EVO) on my Lenovo thinkpad T520. First I installed Samsung cloning sw, attached SSD by USB2SATA conventor and then I ran cloning wizard. After cloning operation (with success result) I changed disks and my laptop was unable to boot from SSD drive. It looks exactly like if there is not any OS instaled on it. But if I connect this SSD disk to other computer, it works normally and I can see proper partition structure on it. I thought Samsung sw did incorrect work and I tried to use hardware disk cloning device to copy original disk to SSd once again in raw form. A little longer work, but worth doing in such case. Unfortunately, the result is the same. Laptop refuses to start OS from SSd and is trying to boot from NET instead. After then I tried to clone original disk to spare hybrid SSHD disk and both methods were successful - ie. laptop boots happily from SSHD but it keeps refusing to boot from Samsung SSD 850 EVO. any ideas what to do next? BIOS setting tweak perhaps?thanks in advance

    Hi
    JirkaT, did you clone entire (!) drive, not partition-by-partition?
    I performed the loning process multiple times w/o issues using free version of Acronis True Image Home application. I hope you'e using the same app from Samsung (it has another name I don't remember).
    I installed the new target drive into the external USB-SATA box and used cloning application on the "old" source drive installed.

  • Kernel panic, Yosemite, early 2011 mbp, samsung SSD

    I am getting kernel panics about once a day, or once every two days. My system is an early 2011 MacBook Pro, with a new SSD from Samsung (850 Evo). The OS is a clean install of Yosemite from an USB drive.
    Everything is running great, except these occasional kernel panics. Does anyone have any ideas?
    I'm hoping its not an incompatibility between the Samsung drive - I bought it on the advice of a technician at the Apple store after my original one broke.
    In case it means anything to anyone, here is my crash report...  help would be much appreciated.
    Thanks!

    You installed a third-party system modification that includes a kernel extension. It might (or might not) be called "Syphon Virtual Screen." Remove it and see whether the panics stop.
    Any third-party software that doesn't install by drag-and-drop into the Applications folder, and uninstall by drag-and-drop to the Trash, is a system modification.
    Whenever you remove system modifications, they must be removed completely, and the only way to do that is to use the uninstallation tool, if any, provided by the developers, or to follow their instructions. If the software has been incompletely removed, you may have to re-download or even reinstall it in order to finish the job.
    I never install system modifications myself, and except as stated in this comment, I don't know how to uninstall them. You'll have to do your own research to find that information.
    Here are some general guidelines to get you started. Suppose you want to remove something called “BrickMyMac” (a hypothetical example.) First, consult the product's Help menu, if there is one, for instructions. Finding none there, look on the developer's website, say www.brickmymac.com. (That may not be the actual name of the site; if necessary, search the Web for the product name.) If you don’t find anything on the website or in your search, contact the developer. While you're waiting for a response, download BrickMyMac.dmg and open it. There may be an application in there such as “Uninstall BrickMyMac.” If not, open “BrickMyMac.pkg” and look for an Uninstall button. The uninstaller might also be accessed by clicking the Customize button, if there is one.
    Back up all data before making any changes.
    You will generally have to restart the computer in order to complete an uninstallation. Until you do that, there may be no effect, or unpredictable effects.
    If you can’t remove software in any other way, you’ll have to erase and install OS X. Never install any third-party software unless you're sure you know how to uninstall it; otherwise you may create problems that are very hard to solve.
    Trying to remove complex system modifications by hunting for files by name often will not work and may make the problem worse. The same goes for "utilities" such as "AppCleaner" and the like that purport to remove software.

  • Time Machine UI non-responsive for single user - due to Samsung SSD read defect

    This is informational - no question. It's an unusual Time Machine problem that may be of interest.
    Every month or so I test my Time Capsule backups with a routine restore. Recenly that failed -- the Time Machine Restore UI did no respond to mouse or keyboard actions. The rest of Time Machine behaved normally -- I could cancel or select a backup. Beyond that - no response. Very occasionally, if I waited a while, I could change directories.
    On further testing my other user accounts worked normally. The problem was only with one account -- the account with by far the heaviest use. I wiped my Time Capsule drive and recreated my 3 machine backups but the problem persisted. Repairing disk permissions had no effect. Repairing my Samsung EVO SSD disk from the emergency partition disk utility did help -- but repair took an unusually long time.
    Answer - I think this was related to the Samsung EVO SSD read bug. [1] My guess is that some parts of my SSD related to directory structure were becoming extremely slow to read, and this caused something in Time Machine to hang (maybe if I'd waited 30 min or so it would have become responsive, I think my SSD was very close to compete failure). After applying the EVO SSD fix my SSD was far faster (startup went from 20 sec to about 1-2 sec) and Time Machine restore, while not zippy, behaved normally.
    [1] http://tech.kateva.org/2014/11/samsung-ssd-840-evo-has-slow-read-bug.html

    Thanks for the reminder.. I just replaced my hard disk in 2011 mini with a 500GB Samsung 840 evo which looked cheapest and fine for what I wanted... it was like a few days before this info came out.. so I have not experienced any slow down.. I had around 100GB on the drive.. so I followed the instructions..
    Created a boot USB using the iso from samsung on a windows machine using http://rufus.akeo.ie/
    This was really simple.. so if you have access to a windows just do it this way.
    Plug the USB into the Mac and hold options at boot and then select windows from the selection of boot devices. It came up with a very familiar DOS screen and I was able to do the firmware upgrade and repair.. took around 30min so no biggie..
    I think as long as you have plenty of free space these things are fairly easy.

  • Samsung SSD 840EVO not booting from macbook pro mid 2012 after cloning

    Hello there,
    I guess i'm so stuck with the SSD that i have purchased.
    Here is the details:
    SSD - Samsung SSD 840 Evo 250GB
    MacBook Pro - 13-inch, Mid 2012
    Model Identifier: MacBookPro9,2
    Processor  2.5 GHz Intel Core i5
    Memory  16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
    Graphics  Intel HD Graphics 4000 1024 MB
    Software  OS X 10.9.1 (13B42)
    Boot ROM Version: MBP91.00D3.B08
    SMC Version (system): 2.2f44
    I was running with the factory HDD (toshiba 500gb) and thought of replacing it with an SSD . Tried a clean installation of mavericks at first using Bootable USB drive having mavericks. So i went on and installed the ssd replacing the HDD i had and went on to boot up from the USB, prior the installtion i tired to partition it first with single partition MAC os extended journaled with GUID table. But then it did partition but after that it says trying to reinitialize the drive and it never came back although i tried more than five times. So then i went back to my HDD and tired cloning it to SSD using Carbon Copy Cloner, but even for that i had to do the partitioning which failed. Finally i had to go and return back that peice and they gave me another one convincing me that it might a defective peice.
    Now, with the second one, at first i booted up my HDD normally and connected the new SSD the USB/sata converter and i successfully partitioned and using carbon copy cloner, i have cloned as well. Now to make sure if its all ok, before replacing the HDD in the main compartment, i just selected the startup disk as the new SSD and restarted the system... it booted up fine like a cheetah... was all gud... i thought everything is pretty fine. Then ofcourse i went ahead and replaced the HDD and powered up the system again, but then it's not booting up... it gives you that folder with ? mark and that's all...
    And then i tried some other ways too... i even checked the firmware versions and i guess they are upto date as well. I just dont get the reason why it's not working.
    Please help me.
