Hi guys,

Is there any other way to format a Samsung SSD other then with the SSD cord? I have just purchased one but I dont have the adaptor. I only have the regular SATA to motherboard cord.

Thank you

It has a Sata port, I took out my old hard drive put this new one in *samsung 840 pro and tried to format it booting a windows cd first... it says that media test failed - check cable
no booting device found.
