It never found the drive, so I may have killed it. I am twiddling my thumbs until I can leave the house, drive to my storage unit and find my USB/SATA external cable, drive to my church, get the laptop, bring it home, uninstall the SSD, then try it hanging off my main Linux laptop (or my Windows host ) just to see. If either of those fail to see it, I’m afraid I toasted it. I don’t think that will qualify for a return. BTW, my last four SSDs have been Samsung—no issues at all. -Tom
