Windows 10: Incorrectly recognised name of SSD

Hello,

I recently bought a crucial MX500 1TB SSD to replace my MX500 250GB SSD.

I have the 250GB SSD connected to my laptop through a SATA III to USB adapter. I am currently using the 1TB SSD.

However, Windows seems to get its name messed up. It is able to recognise the 250GB SSD correctly, but is recognising the 1TB SSD as a TOSHIBA MQ01ABF050 which is a 500GB hard disk drive (which i do not have).

This is shown in disk/partition formatter, device manager and task manager. The SSD is not functioning weirdly but the incorrect naming is bothering me.

ssd not recognised


After update to Windows 10 Anniversary Update I now am getting same problem.

SSD's not recognised. I tried running "winsat formal" from an elevated (admin) command as suggested by Word Man and done previously when I got this problem with no success.

Any suggestions?

 

Windows 10 SSD Boot and Sleep faliure

Windows cannot stop the BIOS recognising the SSD. If at any time you can go into the BIOS and the SSD is not listed then you have an (intermittent) hardware fault. It does not matter what the precursor steps are if the hardware was OK it must be listed

Step 6 is categorical, you have a hardware fault. BIOS device recognition is always before drivers load so they cannot affect the process

 

SATA HDD recognised as SSD

Hi. My SATA HDD is recognised as a SSD and Windows 10 will not perform defragmentation on it as a result; which I appreciate. I've tried many of the prescribed procedures mentioned on forums but to no effect. I'm pretty convinced that the problem lies
in the fact I have installed a SSD in my machine. Windows is recognising the correct size of my SATA HDD however and the SSD isn't showing up quite rightly as its Linux formatted. Using a third party defragmentation program exactly the same problem occurs,
however I was able to defragment my C drive using it as it just warned against it and didn't prohibit me. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
