I migrated the windows 7 home premium system onto it and installed the disk into my VAIO. There was no problem for the whole month. But suddenly two days ago the computer freezed when I was browsing internet using Firefox. The harddisk indicator kept lighting up continuously. After I turned off the laptop and turned it on, the laptop halted at the Windows starting up screen. I got into the VAIO rescue but checked the disk and did not detect any problem. But still I could not get pass the Windows startup screen. So I switched to the old harddrive and the Windows worked fine. I tried to connect the 320 SSD using the USB to SATA cable but the Drive did not show up in My Computer. I tried with another computer and the same thing happened.</P><P>My guess is the Intel Disk is defected? Shall I just call Intel to exchange for a new one?</P><P>Thank you.</P> Fri, 27 Jan 2012 05:54:03 GMT idata 2012-01-27T05:54:03Z https://community.solidigm.com/t5/archive/320-problem/m-p/16804#M10317 <P>Hi,</P><P></P><P>I purchased a 320 series 160G disk last month and everything worked fine.

USB to SATA cables don't alwasy work, the best test would have been connecting your 320 to a SATA port on the other PC. If that failed, and given your other testing, it does sound like a bad SSD.</P> Sun, 12 Feb 2012 04:18:53 GMT https://community.solidigm.com/t5/archive/320-problem/m-p/16805#M10318 idata 2012-02-12T04:18:53Z
