  1. Magical guide to happiness:
  2. 1) Install the 3.13 kernel and try again.
  3. 2) No workie? Try going into your BIOS and check:
  4. a) Are you using RAID? If so, make sure it's a mix of both AHCI + RAID. If not, try updating BIOS to see if that does anything, and try again. If it still doesn't work, disable it. You're better off anyway - it's sketchy at best, and RAID on a desktop isn't even real! [1]
  5. b) Make sure it's on AHCI (/IDE?). If not, change it! First, make the changes in Windows [2], then make the changes in the BIOS. READ THE INSTRUCTIONS FOR WINDOWS CAREFULLY!!!!!!111 You will have a non-booting Windows if you screw up.
  6. c) No workey still? Darn. Make sure BIOS is updated, and try again. If you're on AMD, make sure the SATA controller is updated.
  7. 3) Still broken? :( Try switching around the wires to a different port. First try just a "different port" with the same color/speed, and then switch to a different colored/speed port.
  8. 4) ASDFGHJKL:
  9. a) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aDBInOmmgCY [screw citations v2.0.0.0]
  10. b) Alternatively, return the motherboard and exchange it with another brand.
  11. c) If above doesn't help, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4d2oGk3AvGg [screw citations v2.0.0.1]
  12. d) Alternatively, backup your data and ask Samsung for a replacement, and/or get another SSD.
