| Post subject: | steps to properly reformat an SSD |
I don't know if HDD Guru Low Level Format tool is designed for SSDs. I'm wondering for example if there are any specioal wipe procedures like 'Trim' or some such to allow a reformat. Here is what I tried to do: Install the SSD Windoiws 10 at D: Simply quick reformat under Windows 10 with a working HDD. I wanted to move that SSD to a Win7 install to use as a data drive. Attempring to boot my old MSI 880gm with a Toshiba 2Tb (which is pretty new) failed. It just kept looping to an O8000 whatevers error screen until I removed the SSD. This SSD should not have collision problems as I had described in other posts with HDD to HDD hardware. The SSD is a Crucial SSD BX 500 120 Gb 2.5. I don't know at the moment if there is a Crucial Toolkit needed on ISO or some such. Simply put Win7 seemed to be detecting something it didn't want to recognize. |
