Windows 10: Drive Not Accessible

Hello,My child's computer died. We removed the hard drive and are attempting to access it from another computer via USB. It is an SSD. However, we keep getting Drive Not Accessible, Incorrect Function on the drive, though it does show up as connected. I've tried to update the drivers, but apparently they are the latest drivers. I've tried a couple of different data recovery software but they don't even see the drive. Other sites have recommended re-initializing the drive, but I do not see that as an option anywhere. What can I do to get the data from this disk?

Cannot access shared network drive


Personally, I wouldnt use Everyone. If anyone hacks into you, they have full access to everything and can demolish everything on your raid. I would rather set up accounts and access separately for each person. That way, I know who did all that damage. In the end with a little extra work, I feel more secure by using Authenticated Users.


If this helps.
step 1 create non-microsoft account and without email and address without admin rights
step 2 share a drive or folder to specific user account (if Everyone is listed, remove it)
step 3 set security > add Authenticated Users (if more than 1 account) or add specific users
step 3a remove Everyone from list
step 3b uncheck full control and write for all items listed except SYSTEM and Admin account.
step 4 right click Start > Computer Management > System Tools > Shared Folders > Shares ... to verify settings and change anything else. You can also see the number of connections to each share here.
