A very long correspondence with Samsung support ended with the fact that I was offered to bring the SSD for a test to my service center. Then I downloaded the Samsung Data Migration cloning program and the problems started: this program on both computers did not want to recognize the new SSD connected via a USB 3.0 to DATA adapter. Windows 10 Home Explorer (64bit) saw the new SSD on both computers via a USB 3.0 - DATA adapter. I have two computers: HP ProDesk 400 G3 MT and HP Desktop 460-p2xx. Is there something I'm doing wrong or do Samsung SSDs not play well with HP workstations ? Tried the EVO in another PC and is found first time in Windows and several times after restarting the machine. I can't get the system to boot at all, I get to the Protected by HP Sure Start Screen and the circles spin forever.until I turn of the computer.waited for a good 10 minutes.Ĭhecked for a BIOS update - None available.ĭisconnected everything else (other SATA SSD and DVD drive) - Same result. The drive is recognised by BIOS and I either am able to boot to Windows (10) normally but the drive isn't there (not in disk management, not in Device Manager).like Windows doesn't know it is connected.

I am running into several problems when the drive is connected.

I have just purchased a new Samsung EVO 870 1Tb SATA SSD for use as a secondary drive in my HP Z4 G4 workstation and can't seem to get it to work.
