I purchased a second Samsung 840 Evo due to the first one I had purchased showing up as failing in the Samsung Magician. The first one was not actually failing, it was an apparent bug in the magician software, so I decided to use the second 1 tb 840 Evo as an external USB drive. I had a Anker USB 3.0 SSD case that I had previously used for an old 512 gig SSD and it worked perfectly. However, when I swapped out the old 512 gig SSD with my extra Evo 840 1 tb it never powered up, and was never recognized on my computer.
The same thing had previously happened when I was trying to use the data migration software to move my OS and stuff over to the newer 840 evo.
Any idea why my second 840 evo is not showing up, or even powering up? The LED on the Anker case doesn't come on when the evo is inside it.
