    Hi, guys!
    I need your help with my new Mtron SSD (MSD-PATA3018). Laptop does not detect it. Only what i see that HDD led is alwys on, nothing else.
    Maybe I should do something before installation? Or I bought bad SSD sample?
    Thank you.

    Does the BIOS see it? It should be listed in the BIOS hardware configuration (press F2 at the BIOS splash screen, IIRC, to get to the BIOS setup menu).
