SSD not detected due to I/O device error
Q:
SSD not detected due to I/O device error how to recover data?
I have a new 120gb SSD and I'm having trouble initializing it to partition so i could use it as a drive. When i try to initialize the disk (ssd) I tried both GPT and MBR partition styles, but it keeps giving me the god damn error. Here's the error: " The request could not be performed because of an I/O device error "
A:
Since you don't have access to another computer at the moment, you could try swapping the SATA cable and the SATA port where the SSD is connected to. Make sure that it's properly mounted inside the computer & that the SATA mode is set to AHCI in the BIOS, afterwards, attempt to initialize it again! Another thing you could do is plug the SSD externally via a SATA-to-USB cable, to check if you'd be able to get it re-formatted though the USB connection.
When the ssd not detected, should not be easy to do the physical maintenance of the ssd, be sure to have enough patience to find a solution. 2: The hard disk can not be identified, there are many hardware and software reasons, sometimes the file system or partition table damage, this situation, the direct use of data recovery software will be able to recover data; sometimes the motherboard configuration is damaged, the motherboard configuration reset to Factory settings, remove the motherboard battery and re-install the battery, in many cases this simple means will be able to solve the problem; some of the most common very simple problem, only need to clean up the computer parts of the dust can be; 3: Even if you have tried a variety of solutions, still can not solve the problem, do not be discouraged, have patience, still do not easily physical maintenance ssd. 4: similar to the problems I mentioned earlier, and sometimes, the hard disk used for a long time, he just need to rest for some time, sometimes for another computer, only need more time to wait. It should be noted that some failures are caused by insufficient power supply 5: If in the end anyway can not solve the problem, do physical testing should be very cautious, at least in the detection of non-destructive means to be used. 6: A serious failure of the old ssd, backup and recovery of important data, try not to continue to use.
Use "Full Scan" to recover raw files from ssd, to recover files from ssd if partitions show as "raw" or recover deleted files which can not be found with "undelete" and "unformat" and "recover partition" after showing an error,display as raw file system,unformatted,unknown partition,unpartitioned,needs to be formatted.
