Hi everyone
All of a sudden my SSD seems to not respond, and when i boot i get an error saying to "reboot and select proper boot device"
I go into the BIOS and it is reading my SSD and it is set as the #1 spot to boot from but it wont boot.
Tried to reinstall windows just as a test and it wont let me reinstall onto the ssd.
Have tried swapping cables around and no change.
I had issues earlier in the week where my BIOS reset itself suddenly, which was fixed for a few days and now this.
Any help is appreciated, ive had so many issues with this computer (custom build) im ready to just get rid of it.

power off the computer, wait a minute and then power back on and if it boots up look for bios and ssd firmware updates.

managed to get windows reinstalled (yay) so the computer now boots, and have updated my ssd firmware. The RAID configuration on my regular hard drive/s had reset itself so Ive managed to reset that up but it is now not showing up in Intel Rapid Storage Technology, and I get an error saying "your system is reporting one or more events and data may be at risk"

Also tried to update my BIOS using QFlash and when I click "update BIOS from drive" it wont do anything/pick up my USB (formatted to FAT32) so I can't actually update it.
