Good morning,
I just wanted to install an SSD in my PC to store one or two games on it.
So I thought I could just use the old SSD from a previous PC.
However, if I plug it in, disk management freezes and I can't access the SSD at all.
Is the hard drive dead? I still need some files from it.

Loading...Good day, I am currently trying to understand the basics of lasers. I can imagine photons as magnetic waves that oscillate transversely . I also know the condition for a standing wave well enough from school. However, the resonator condition now refers to longitudinal modes, and unfortunately I don't understand that. I know that a…
My exhaust heat shield has fallen off. I have it here now. I need a new one. I'll probably have to have it repaired at a garage. It's on a 2011 Ford Fiesta. How much would a repair cost?
Can I replace the existing 500GB HDD in my Acer Aspire 7741G with an SSD hard drive?
Hi, I have the AMD B550 x V2 motherboard ( https://www.gigabyte.com/de/Motherboard/B550-GAMING-X-V2-rev-10-11-12#kf ) and already two 8 GB RAMs each with a DRAM frequency of 1796 MHz (which should be 3600 MHz as effective?) in slots A2 and B2. If I now want to install two Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 16 GB RAMs each ( https://www.amazon.de/Corsair-Vengeance-Performance-Arbeitsspeicher-Optimised/dp/B082DGZJ9C…
I'd like to replace my two NVMe SSD hard drives. Both have 1 TB of storage. Since I'm working a lot with videos these days, I'd like to expand this storage. Perhaps up to 6 or 8 TB. I have a B550 motherboard with two NVMe connectors, one with PCIe 4.0 and the other with…
As mchawk777 already said – if the data can be deleted then everything is deleted and reappear a good idea!
Windows is sometimes a bit lazy – I would recommend you booting the PC from a Linux stick and using the disk Gparted new to partition:
Use GDRT – there’s everything you need: https://sourceforge.net/projects/disk-doctor-recovery-toolkit/
If you want to back up the data, you can do it with DDRT. Either it can read the partition directly or you use DMDE.
However, I would have the formatting of Windows done – write access to NTFS is as far as I still know a legal gray zone without a Microsoft license for this and “free” tools I still miss a little, although it seems to work quite reliable in the meantime.
Wrong. Linux only uses a small part of NTFS functions. This allows it to read crimped file systems in which Windows has long been wiping a bluescreen or simply hanging.
If you want to read this with Linux as much as the safe mode. Only the most necessary parts are used.
Therefore, you can also handle all access barriers created via permissions with Linux.
To do this, Linux gives more control over the hardware.
PS. NTFS reading and writing has been working without problems for many years.
To delete the partition table, I would also use Linux. To restart Windows again.
This is about deleting the SSD and writing a clean new partition table + file system catalog.
Since Windows seems to have a problem with it (see picture) I would draw on something that will probably work better.
And I could easily solve hundreds of such problems with Linux.
I was “just” about writing. Not for data recovery. (Also not about – undisputed – advantages of Linux and other free systems.)
Regarding “without problems”: this is the difference between “experienced” and “specifically”. It may have changed, but it would surprise me.
You have the right, insofar as in the usual relationship of complexity and quality assurance from algorithm design of the software “experiencedly” has much more significance than “specifically”.
First of all, a great praise as you picture the exception on this platform and see if there is an SSD/HDD. 😅
Unfortunately, you misinterpret the ad: Your SSD is detected – allegedly disk 1.
The question is more: Why is this shown twice?
Recommendation: Erase All Partitions of the data carrier 1 and then restart the computer.
If the disk then appears only once, everything is O.K. and you can add a new partition incl. Create drive.
(Do I need to point out backups before such interventions? 😉)
I’m afraid the disk management can’t do anything with Platte1…
This possibility is in the room.
Nevertheless, I would try to delete the partitions first.
Let’s go:
If not, then an error message will hopefully help us further. 🤔
Neither disk management nor diskpart nor Windows installation stick can start with the disk. Every bios shows it sporadically. It will appear twice because Windows was overwhelmed with inside and out!
O.K. – This limits the possibilities.
Either the SSD has a defect or another component involved: cable, slot, etc.
I’d replace the SATA cables for testing.
8 years – depending on the technology, this is a proud age for a flash medium. From the abdomen I would say that devices for PCs (hot devices) for approx. 5 years. (And cheap high-capacity USB sticks are often no longer printable after 2 years.)
Yes – 8 years ago, that was true.
Nowadays I would not spend more than €70.
For example, I wouldn’t want to add such a small SSD until you get 1 TByte for 130-150 €.
2014 was a normal price :/
Since, unfortunately, as well as never used due to the year abroad (end 2014) and then was a new PC on the series!
Right. But maybe that’s what’s going on.

150 € for 240 GByte?
You’d be pulled over the table.
This is burdensome. Too bad. At a new price of 150€. Well, you don’t do anything. Thank you.
Then she’s clearly broken. Come on.
Tested on 3 different PCs. Per Sata and USB adapter. Unfortunately, she doesn’t. 30 minutes of continuous flow hasn’t brought anything!
