Hey guys,
I have found some similar threads on this but nothing that has solved my problem. I am working on an alienware x51 r3 with an intel core i5-6400 and 1tb HDD
Anyway, I ran into some issues with the HDD whirling up to 100% and was thinking about getting a SSD so this was the time. I purchased a Samsung 850 EVO.
I cloned the HDD and then shut everything down and swapped it out with the SSD. When I boot everything up, I get the error INTERNAL HARD DISK DRIVE NOT FOUND. It suggests reseating (which I have done many times)
When I go into the BIOS settings, the drive is visible there. It is also visible in the disk management tool on windows 10.
I updated the BIOS to the latest firmware with no luck. At this point I am not really sure what else to try.
It has been about 10 years since I have had a PC, so I apologize if I am missing something obvious. If anyone has some other ideas, I really would appreciate the help!
Thanks!
