    Windows not recognizing new SSD


    Hello everyone.

    Due to my computer's unbearably slow performance, I recently purchased a 8 TB Seagate Barracuda SSD and a USB to SATA cable. I connected it into my USB port; however, nothing appears in My Computer. Every help article on the web says to assign it a drive letter however that didn't work. It registers in device/disk management as ASM 2115 USB Device. I also tried updating the drivers and restarting my computer to no avail.

    :)

    USB not recognized after startup with new SSD

    Hi,

    Please answer the following:

    • Which version of Windows 10 are you using?
    • Aside from installing a new SSD, were there any updates made to your device prior to this issue?

    We suggest that we check for system file corruption, check this
    link     for more information.

    Regards.

    Getting windows to recognize new SSD after cloning and swapping

    Today I cloned my SSD (some OCZ Vertex where Windows 10 x64 is installed) to a bigger SSD (some Crucial M500) then swapped the drives. (I followed this guide, pretty much step-by-step.)

    Everything has gone smoothly except that when I go to Device Manager, the old SSD is still listed under Disk drives:

    I have ran a benchmark with AS SSD Benchmark and got numbers that match those for the Crucial M500. So does it matter that Device Manager has the wrong name? If I'd like Windows to recognize the new drive properly and display as such under Device Manager, how would I do that please?
