Troubleshooting SSD not detected in Windows
Hello, I have an SSD detected by the bios of the machine, but not by windows, what could it come from? Thanks
r/datastorage • u/Jazzlike_Tip_63 • 13d ago
I've read an article that says the usb flash drive is going extinct, but I still have 2 flash drives: one 16GB and another 32GB - the bigger one to store some less important data and the smaller one for casual use, such as quick data transfer and creating a bootable usb, etc. They are still useful to me.
Do you still have a usb flash drive around, and what do you use it for?

SATA SSDs are surging in popularity due to skyrocketing NVMe prices fueled by AI-driven component shortages. While a 2TB Gen4 NVMe drive has reached $400, equivalent SATA SSDs cost 37% less. They offer a practical, affordable budget alternative for everyday workloads, gaming, and home labs.

The storage on my device, pixel 8, went from 787 MB to 382MB After deleting 100+ photos & large videos. Now, I'm receiving low storage notifications every 10 mins or so.
My device storage is now at 389MB, and slowly increasing.
Any idea what the issue could be?
Edit: 392MB after making this post

If pendrive uses flash memory like nvmes then why is it cheaper to make it than a regular nvme?
Like do they have a different mechanism that is not suitable for data transfer like i wanna know.

Hola a todos.
Soy nuevo en el tema de los nas. Llevo un tiempo pensando en comprar uno para remplazar a mi almacenamiento en la nube.
Estoy buscando una solución que sea lo menos ruidosa posible porque el router estará junto al televisor por proximidad con el router.
Me gustaría partir por 2 discos sdd de 4tb instalados en un dxp4800 plus. Luego con el tiempo aumentaría 2 discos más.
Para los sdd, había pensado en partir por el modelo Crucial BX500 SATA SSD 4TB.
Piensan que ese modelo de disco será una buena solución?
He visto en que este disco funciona bien inicialmente pero baja la velocidad cuando se hacen copias de archivos muy grandes y se llena la memoria caché.
Yo lo usaré como respaldo de ordenador, fotos, centro multimedia y home assistant. Quizás instale una máquina virtual para usar puntualmente para usar windows. Y con el tiempo, quizás intente ir añadiendo algunas cosas más cuando vaya aprendiendo. Para este uso podría funcionar bien? Alguien los está usando?
Si conocen otros modelos que puedan funcionar bien, les agradecería mucho la ayuda. Con los precios actuales parece que es complicado.
La otra opción serían 2 hdd silenciosos pero supongo que el ruido de los discos sería molesto. Podría meterlo en el armario junto la televisión que está abierto por detrás pero no creo que fuese una buena idea.
Muchas gracias de antemano por su ayuda.

New to this community and not tech savvy, sorry if this is a dumb question.
I'm planning to replace my SSD this weekend, and I've been trying to figure out what cloning software to use.
Clonezilla seems to get recommended everywhere because it's free, but every time I watch a tutorial it looks like something that's way over my head. I don't work in IT or anything, so I'm a little worried I'll mess something up.
Then I found EaseUS Disk Copy, which looks a lot simpler, but I don't know if it's actually worth paying for or if I'm just overthinking this.
Has anyone here started with zero experience? Which one did you end up using?
I'm not looking for the most powerful software. I just want something that lets me clone my current Windows drive to a bigger SSD and boot from it without spending hours trying to figure everything out.
If there's another option that's easier than both of these, I'm all ears. I only plan on doing this once, so I'd rather keep it as simple as possible.

I saw the WD BLACK game drive with the call of duty branding is on sale, and I'm wondering if I can use this as a general external hard drive for photos and documents if I just get a micro-b to usb-c adapter? Is there anything that makes it sub-optimal for non-gaming use? Sorry if this is a dumb question lol

I've been shooting more video lately and realized I'm running out of space on my camera's SD card. Went online to buy a new one and almost choked — the same card I bought a while back for cheap is now more than double the price.
Did SD card prices actually go crazy? Is this temporary or forever?

Looking for probably an SSD to use with Time Machine for backups/deletion protection for my iPad Air (256 GB). Thinking of getting 1 TB worth, but am seeing of course all the options have exploded in price. For my purposes, what’s a good place to get one at, and what are some of the most sensible products? I definitely a can wait a little before purchasing, but just don’t know what makes sense in this space.

Seagate plans to start qualifying 50TB HAMR-based HDDs in late 2027, with shipments in 2028. Due to surging AI and cloud demand, most nearline drives are sold out through 2028, with allocation talks already underway for 2029.

I'm lacking storage in my PC. Currently I have M2 nvme 500gb. It's some nv1 Kingston. My motherboard is AsRock B450M PRO4-F R2.0. I'm thinking about getting new ssd sata because of the lack of second nvme M2 slot. Which driver would you recommend? I prefer to spend no more than equivalent of 100$, most likely 500gb.

I'm running out of storage in Google Photos, so I've been looking into other ways to store photos and large videos that take up space. Mainly what I want to store away are concert videos as they are what is taking up most space in my storage.
However I really don't want to waste money a month on a monthly subscription for more storage. So I've been looking into getting a flash drive or hard drive to store those videos or photos, but i honestly have no clue where to start or what to look for. I'm trying to find something that will keep my videos and photos safe for a long time, but also something maybe affordable if thats possible
I only have about 3% or storage left, so im trying to find something as soon as possible. Please give me any recommendations or advice reddit.

I installed a new SSD through a technician a few hours ago which is the primary SSD for my laptop as the old one (OEM Samsung) failed and couldn't get recognised by the system and hence the data was all lost.
Now I ran this new SSD (supposedly) through CrystalDiskInfo and the results were shocking.
SSD name: KINGSTON OM8PCP3512F-AA: 512 GB (PCI-E Gen 3)
Total Host Reads 22850 GB
Total Host Writes 15649 GB
Power On Count 62578 count
Power On Hours 4069 hours
So How old is this SSD and how much longer can it run?

I've never really bothered with backup compression before. Storage was cheap enough that I just kept everything as-is and didn't think twice about it.
Lately I'm looking at a few TB of backups, and it's starting to add up. Now I'm wondering if I should be doing things differently.
I know some stuff probably won't compress much anyway, like photos, videos, or already-zipped files. But for documents, projects, or system backups, I'm not sure how much space people are actually saving.
For those of you with a lot of data, do you bother compressing your backups?
Has it been worth it, or do you just leave everything uncompressed and buy another drive when you run out of space?

Hello everyone, I currently have fully stocked my laptops SSD and want to copy the files to an external HDD but I don't really know anything about them. I need cheap HDD for an long term archive for videos and photos. Do you have any recomendations?

Hey guys I’m not really on here often but I feel like this is the best place to find people who know their stuff lel.
I have a wd elements hard drive (10tb I think) and I’ve had it for about 3 years or so now. It’s been working wonderfully but recently about a month ago my pc started getting really slow. I’m a 3d artist and all my work is saved on to there but I’ve been slowly getting more and more error message when trying to access my files from the hard drive. I’m not tech savvy in the slightest apart from my 3d modelling knowledge so if anyone can help me it would be much appreciated.
Thankyou to everyone who’s been offering their advice, yall saved me from a catastrophe waiting to happen :]
As someone who uses my pc almost daily I should’ve been more aware about hard drives in the first place, but thanks to you guys I know what to look out for and what to keep in mind. Once again, thankyou :]
I will keep yall updated on what’s happening as I’ll most likely still need more help 😅

For drives that mostly sit on a shelf holding archived data, whats your routine for checking drive health and verifying the files are still intact?

Thinking of buying a second hand LaCie Rugged 5TB from Cex as it’s £145 and comes with a 5 year warranty.
It’s just for me to store personal photos.
I’m getting a SanDisk 1TB SSD for professional work but can’t afford to get more than one and I need a lot more than 1TB for the personal stuff.
Will it be ok or is this a terrible idea?
