SSD not recognized by the bios of my GT70 2OD-056AU

Hello there,
I have a GT70 2OD-056AU since 3 months ago.
I  tried to add a SSD in the second bay but it isn't recognized in the bios. The SSD is seated properly, it is a SAMSUNG SSD 840 EVO 2.5"
I changed the bios setting from AHCI to IDE and nothing changed.
I tried to replace de HDD with the SSD (add the SSD on the fist bay), and then it worked, but couldn't make both SSD and HDD work at the same time.
Do I need to update with the other bios (supporting the RAID) if I want to install another drive? Even if not necessarily in RAID?
Is there anything special that needs to be done when installing a 2nd drive on this system?
Thank you.

No to all. If SSD is connected properly to SATA and power try resetting EC: How to reset the EC (Embedded Controller)

  • SSD not recognized by the bios of my GT780DX-263US

    Hi,
    I have a GT780DX-263US since 3 months.
    I  tried to add a 2nd hard drive but it isn't recognized in the bios. The hard drive is seated properly.
    The original hard drive installed is the Western Digital and the bios is original also. (Bios ver.1761, i think).
    The second hard drive i tried to installed is the Memoright FTM Plus 240gb Sata III SSD.
    I changed the bios setting from AHCI to IDE and nothing changed.
    Do i need to update with the other bios (supporting the RAID) if i want to install another drive? Even if not necessarily in RAID? 
    Is there anything special that needs to be done when installing a 2nd drive on this system?
    Please somebody can help me?
    Thanks

  • Hard drive and dvd are not recognized in the setup menu, what could be wrong?

    The hard drive and dvd drive are not recognized on the setup menu for my Pavilion a4316f desktop computer.  Could it be a failure of the controller?  Can a PCI controller be used to replace the mother board controller?
    This question was solved.

    The Recovery process would erase you hard drive, and attempt to install a fresh OS. Decidely a bad choice if you wanted to save your data files. The Recovery sets are "tattoo" with the BIOS hardwafre configuration. It will not, IMHO, recognize the PCI Sata card.
    You mentioned the Recovery program on the hard drive actually requested the installer of the controller (PCI card). Try running from that.

  • SSD not detected in MSI bios?

    So i have a corsair force lx SSD and it seems to be not detected on the bios. This SSD does have an OS in it and my pc does boot. but sometimes when i turn on my pc it gives the "9C" error i believe. after i did some research hat code means that it is searching for a bootable USB or something similar. So itry to move the SSD to first boot priority but the SSD is not even an option. It is detected, the mobo sees it in board explorer and all but it is not seen on the "boot priority"
    I do have an HDD, Optical Drive and the SSD plugged in. But the SSD is in sata port 6. does plugging it farther down the sata port effect its "detectedness"? Should i move it down to sata port 1 or sata port 2?
    Sorry if my grammar/sentence structure and all seems messed up. I am in a bit of hurry while typing this thread.

    CPU: fx8350 stock speed

    Which SATA port is the SSD plugged into? Make sure it is into #1 on the motherboard so it's detected as #1. Otherwise some play within BIoS is required to get it up.
    The SSD is plugged into sata port 6.
    My HDD is plugged into sata port 1
    Optical drive is plugged into sata port 2
    I will swap my SSD and HDD port and see if it will show up on the boot priority

  • Intermittent : The term 'get-date' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program.

    I have developed a batch harness whereby all scheduled tasks (W2012) invoke a common powershell script that acts as a wrapper to all our housekeeping jobs.
    The first step in the wrapper is to create a Transcript file using following code
    if ($Host.name -ne "Windows PowerShell ISE Host") # Transcript does not work within ISE
    $timestamp = (get-date -format "yyyy-MM-dd-HH-mm-ss.fff")
    $path = "c:\corp\$timestamp" + "_$pid.txt"
    Start-Transcript -path $path -append
    As expected the folder contains files with timestamp & pid in name

    I need help! when I am importing my NEF Raw files from my D3300 camera into lightroom 5 and try to use the "copy as DNG" button I always get an error message saying that "saying the file is not recognized by the raw format support". The whole purpose of that button is so that the file can be recognized... How can I make the "copy as DNG" button work as it is supposed too?? Thank you

    Thank you for responding. So I essentially will never be able to use that button in lightroom 5? do I need to get LR 6? Will there ever be an update for LR 5 that will enable me to use it?
    Does DNG Converter work within LR or do I have to upload pictures to my computer and then make a second copy in DNG format. and then go into LR and use them?

  • Calendar Server Error: At least one sharee was not recognized by the server. New invitations have not been sent.

    I deployed a Mountain Lion Server with the calendar service active. Every time a user tries to share a calendar they have created under thier account to an external person using thier email address, the server gives the following error: "At least one sharee was not recognized by the server. New invitations have not been sent."
    Invites to share a calendar to OD accounts on the server seem to work fine.
    I have a calendar specific email address for external invites set up. The server seems to send individual event invites to external email addresses just fine, so I am thinking the email is working. Email is not served on the Mountain Lion Server. The account is through Google Apps using IMAP and SMTP.
    What's even stranger, is that there doesn't seem to be any message in the Calendar error logs.
    I've tried creating a new test account and no luck.

  • WD6400BPVT SATA hard drive in Satellite A100 LE1(E) not recognized by latest BIOS

    I recently purchased a WD6400BPVT (640GB) 2.5" SATA drive to replace the original 80GB drive. I have updated the BIOS to the latest version (2.30). With the new drive installed the system hangs on the splash screen when the BIOS tries to recognize the drive. I can not even enter the BIOS. If I put the old drive back in, the system boots fine again. I know the new drive is good because I have installed it sucessfully in an A100-0FH (also with the latest BIOS - vesion 6.00 without issues.
    I tried Toshiba techical support in Canada and all they could tell me was to install SATA drivers. I tried to explain to them that the system does not get to the OS, so it is impossible to do so and it would not help in any event. Then they wanted me to pay for service since the system is out of warranty. I asked if they would refund my money if they failed to "fix" it, and the lady said "no". When a BIOS upgrade is required no technician willl be able to fix my problem. When I declined to pay the lady just hung up on me. So much for service.
    I am trying desperately to bring this issue to Toshiba's attention. I know a simple BIOS update will fix it. If the WD640 does not work, which other drives will not work? How many drives to I have to buy to try to find one that works?
    I have 5 Toshiba Satellite notebooks in the family, one that had to go in for warranty repairs twice. They followed up to make sure I was happy and I have been a very happy Toshiba customer so far. The treatment I got from technical support in Canada francly sucked. I am hopinng that someone withing Toshiba will read this and pass it to their BIOS people and then e-mail me an updated BIOS that will recognize my drive. Failing that I would at least hope for a list of large 2.5" SATA drives that my A100 LE1 will recognize.
    Thank you.

    Thx lorddethstalker.
    I dropped the original sticks of RAM back in.  Same error with TOSHIBA Recovery Wizard.  Same apparent dead end with System Recovery Wizard.  I get to System Recovery Options where I do not see the Vista operating system and am instructed to load drivers for the hard disk--but do not know what I am supposed to load from where. 
    I also do not know what I should expect to encounter in the context of a new SATA drive + Toshiba recovery disks.  I sort of expected a plug and play scenario, plug in the new hard drive, boot to recovery disks, format new hard disk and install OS.  How do I determine the drivers I should load at the System Recovery Option screen, and/or what should the "normal" sequence of events be with new SATA?
    Gracias.
