    Hi guys.
    It is now the second time my SSD crashes on me. I got a blue screen and now when I start the engine I get this:

    2100 Detection error on HDD.....

    I had the same thing happen 2 months ago. The lenovo service replaced the SSD and now it happened again.
    They said it crashed.

    I am getting crazy. I am now travelling and will be back home in 5 weeks. Lost all my data. Should I go get a normal HD because I have never had this message with it.
    Would you say its my machines fault or the hard drives.
    I really need a solution.
    I have my stuff backed up at home but come on. This is very annoying.

    Perhaps there's something wrong with the connector?

    I'd call up IBM and (if you're still under warranty) ask them to check out said connector. SSDs are typically more reliable than HDDs, so either you bought two lemon SSDs (what models, btw?) or there's something wrong with your laptop.
