Aspire V3-575G-79XK SSD Problem

gdoesterdal1989

I recently purchased an Aspire V3-575G-79XK. Everything works well. Then I have an existing Crucial BX100 250gb SSD from my other Laptop which I tried to install on the new Aspire V3-575G-79XK. Everything went well. I installed Windows 10 and all the drivers, restarted the laptop, used it for a while. The next day I discovered that sometimes it does not detect the SSD on boot up. I was wondering what happened. I tried to turn the laptop on and off but it wouldn't detect the SSD in the BIOS. I tried to disconnect the batteries to try to reset everything then I discovered that sometimes it detects the SSD and sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes the SSD powers up and sometimes it doesn't. So I tried installing the HDD that came with the Aspire V3-575G-79XK back again and it works without any problem. I also installed back the SSD to my other laptop and it also works fine. No problems at all. Is there any fix for this problem? I really wanna use my SSD on the new Aspire V3-575G-79XK but its very frustrating that sometimes it powers up and sometimes I have to reset the batteries a couple of times just to make it work. Thanks

Have you ever checked about SSD firmware updates?

Yup both my SSD and Acer firmwares are up to date.

I think you can't do pretty much, seems an handshake problem on boot.

Just a quick obvious question:
Are BIOS set as UEFI and windows boot manager set as first bootable device?

Did a clean install on my SSD. BIOS is set to legacy and first boot priority is my SSD. Problem is sometimes my SSD doesn't even show up in the BIOS so I have remove the battery again and try and try and try until it recognizes the SSD.
