T30 not recognize any HDD
T30 not recognize any HDD
Hi!
Problem become suddenly. Once a day my T30 doesn't recognize any HDD and can't boot. If I go to the bios, there is no any HDD listed.

Re: T30 not recognize any HDD
Welcome to the forum.
Sorry to hear about your trouble. The HDD may have died (or in the process of dying, if the problem is intermittent). Test with a different drive, if possible. Alternatively, test the same HDD in a different system.
If the problem is intermittent, the first thing I would do is try to backup everything important from the drive while you can access it.

What dr_st said. Your hard drive is dying or is dead.

Re: T30 not recognize any HDD
Tested with different HDD and problem is the same
Re: T30 not recognize any HDD
Then it's most likely the system board or the IDE connector between the board and the drive bay.

Re: T30 not recognize any HDD
I resoldered the IDE connector on the main board. Now assamble the system for testing

Re: T30 not recognize any HDD
Seems it's solved by resoldering
