HDD for SSD swap

[chris73]

Hi looking for some help. I changed out my Hdd for a SDD as it was intermittantly failing to read. I Have a MSI GE72 2QD Apache.
Installed a Evo 850 1tb using samsung wizard and the work around for it to read with windows 10, Worked fiine for about 3 days now doesnt show up in disk managment or wizard.
If i remove the SSD and put back in it reads then disapears after about 2-3 hours.
Any suggetions on trouble shooting this problem or how to diagnose the slot.
Computer says its working fine, Any help will be kindly regarded thanks in advance.

Sounds liek the M.2 slot may be loose ... did you put the screw into the caddy to hold the SSD in place? Remove and check ... clean all of the contacts too.

Cleaned contacts and swapped over the location bracket and tightened screws on installation. Thanks Reynod

Well it is a weird one.

The EVO drives are rock solid.
