When i cold-start my computer everything is fine, but when I restart my computer from within a freshly installed windows-7, the drive is not found.
If i turn off the computer and start it again, the drive is found and boots up again as usual. So the drive fails after reset.
I have upgraded the firmware of the SSD to the latest version via the SSD toolbox but still no luck. also updated laptop bios to latest version.
I had no problems in the past with the Intel SSD 510 edition.
Any ideas on what to do?Clarification:
So, when I insert my Intel 510 SSD and start windows and restart windows it works without problem. But with the Intel 530 it wails when I do restart, the BIOS does not find it after a normal reset. So that must conclude that the Intel SSD 530 has some bug? or is sensitive to some timing issue?
Should I return it? or just assume its incompatible with my laptop?

Billyray, is there any response to your post on the ASUS forum?

Hello,
I have exactly the same issue on a HP Elitebook 8570p. I've installed windows 7 enterprise 64 bit and after reboot it doesn't finds the OS.
Any fix?

Hi - I have a similar issue with my Mac Pro. I just installed a 240GB 530 series SSD and installed a fresh copy of 10.8 Mountain Lion. On a warm restart I get a "circle-slash" - verbose mode shows the message "still waiting for root device". A cold boot works just fine.
I've updated to 10.8.5 and the latest DC12 firmware. Help!

All - I have the same Failed to detect 530 SSD on restart/reboot issue. Cold boot works fine, every time.
I have a Lenovo W520, just today upgraded to Windows 8 + 530 SSD and the problem has surfaced, the 520 SSD has been faultless. I can also confirm that the first thing I did when this happened was look for the Fast boot option in my bios, which wasn't there.
Please intel, don't knock my confidence in your drives as I regularly recommend them to customers!
