Hello,
I soldered a NGFF connector to my laptop's motherboard a few days ago, and I installed a 128GB MyDigitalSSD SSD and it is not being detected in the BIOS, and I can't find it in the disk management either. I called Lenovo technical support the day before soldering it and they told me that installing the connector should be enough, no additional ICs or controllers are required, and I called them again yesterday, and they told me that they don't have access to such very technical information
I tried a few solutions,including :
1. Switching the boot to Legacy instead of UEFI.(Stopped working since I updated the BIOS yesterday)
2. Reinstalled the chipset driver.
3. Installed ExpressCache and it didn't work either.
Note: The SSD seems like it is getting power since it is heating up while I'm using the PC.
Q1: Is there a way to know whether the connector is recognized by the device?
Q2: I bought a NGFF to SATA connector to check whether the SSD is defective, but its arriving in a month from now, so is there any other way to do that without using any equipment?
Thanks,
Hush
