Hello MUlHa,

Thank you for contacting Intel® Memory & Storage Support.

We have noticed that you had a thread open related to the same Intel® SSD Pro 2500 Series that seems to be an OEM (original equipment manufacturer) drive from Lenovo* (https://forums.intel.com/s/question/0D50P00004Eix3d) in this thread you were referred to them in order to get further support and assistance related to your drive, and we shared some suggestions on how to try to fix your issue. We will like to know if you tried them.

If you tried the suggestions given and were not able to solve your SSD issue our recommendation is to contact Lenovo* to try to get the SSD replaced.

We will be looking forward to your reply in case you need further assistance.

Actually, I tried these steps but now SSD is not appearing in BIOS. ALso, previously BIOS used to take no time in starting up. Now, it takes a lot of time and show that some unknown storage device is connected. I tried that SSD Power Cycle where you connect SSD to power and leave it running for 20-25 minutes. That also didn't help. 😞
