    Samsung SSD is detected but not showing up in "This PC" Devices and drives session on...


    I have a Samsung Portable SSD T7. I tried to insert it into my laptop but it does not show up in "This PC" Devices and drives. I then go to Disk Management and found that the SSD is detected but cannot change drive letters and path. I have tried to update the drivers and also tried a few different methods but none of them works.

    Added a Samsung SSD to my PC ... new drive not showing in 'Devices and Drives' under 'This PC'

    I recently added a Samsung SSD to my PC (Mapped to MSamsung SSD is detected but not showing up in "This PC" Devices and drives session on... :) ... new drive not showing in 'Devices and Drives' under 'This PC'. My boot / system drive is on a NVMe and I have four (4) other 2.5" SSDs. Under This PC ... I can see 3 of the SSDs, but not the fourth.

    It is there in Device Manager.

    It is there in Disk Management.

    It is there is I open a command prompt and CD to the M: drive.

    I can get there by typing M: in the 'command bar' on File Explorer.

    I can copy files to and from this drive

    Why isn't it there in This PC?

    Installing SSD not detected by BIOS

    Sequence of installing new SSD.
    1. Disconnected the HDD with Windows.
    2. Fitted Syba 4 Sata PCI-E card
    3. Fitted Samsung 500GB 860 SSD connected to Syba 4 Sata PCI-E card
    4. Installed Windows 10 Home in Samsung 500GB 860 SSD
    ​Windows installed fine in the SSD. Entered the BIOS to set the SSD as 1st Boot priority but the BIOS has not detected it. The only boot devices shown in the BIOS are the CD/DVD Rom and the Replaceable Device. *Mad
    Device Manager shows the SSD connected.
    I connected the the HDD which still has Windows installed but I get the message to "Reboot and Select Boot Media" even though the SSD is still connected. *Eek
    Any help would be most appreciated.

    Just noticed while safe removing USB memory stick that the SSD shows as a removable drive C\:!!!! *Eek

    SSD showing up as HDD in device manager

    Hi,

    I just installed a Samsung SSD 2TB drive. I already have two 2TB and 1TB SSD drives and one old Western Digital 2TB disk drive insatlled. My new SSD drive is working properly. I was able to format it and move files to it, but it shows up as a Western
    Digital hard drive in Device Manager. My new drive is listed properly in the BIOS as an SSD drive. Is there any way to fix this? Thanks.
