    It is a Team Group AX2 512GB. I have tried it in 3 computers and the same thing happens. Blue circle for 1/2 second and then no sign of life even after waiting. No error messages or additional windows at all.Crystal disk says it is healthy. From my searches, this problem is fairly unique so I've been bashing my head searching for answers.All tested PCs were win10. One sandy bridge Optiplex, a custom with h97m pro4, and an x79 system with Xeon x3480. Different SATA cables were used.

  2. SSD not initialized and unable to initialize

    There could be several reasons due to which ‘Disk Unknown Not Initialized’ error message may occur, which are mentioned as following:
    Corrupt/ Incompatible/Outdated Driver, MBR Corruption, Missing or lost partition, Bad Sectors in hard drive, Corrupt File System etc. To solve this problem we apply some fundamental manual steps like: update the device driver,
    Rebuild the MBR boot, initialized disk, assign a drive letter, Run CHKDSK command and Run diskpart utility.

    To initialized the disk go to Disk management > and locate the drive that not initialized > the drive will show unallocated. > select unallocated disk > Right click on it > click initialized disk > select
    between GPT > Click OK.

    Once the process is done, you will redirected to main windows and check you can access it or not.

    SSD not initialized and unable to initialize

    I have 3 disks on my desktop : 1 M.2 disk (boot disk) , 1 SSD drive and 1 HDD drive . Everything was working well until yesterday i was unable to access some files on the SSD drive . After restarting the computer the SSD drive doesn't appeared anymore
    .

    In disk management appears as "Disk 1 - Unknown - Not initialized" . When i click to initialize i got the error "A device which does not exist was specified." . What can be the cause of this ? How can i initialize the drive ?

    SSD is not initializing

    The issue is I have a SSD, it shows up how ever it won't initialize. I have tried the normal initialize and nothing happens or received the "This operation cannot be completed because the disk management is not up to date...". Any ideas?
