I have a Samsung 830 and I set it up with another SSD in an Intel MB RAID array. I deleted the array when I connected it to a win 7 machine, it would see the drive but it wasn't initialized. I tried to initialize it and it wouldn't work - something about "file not found...".
I transfered the disk to a Linux machine, it was detected via USB interface and SATA interface. I did a "dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=4096 count=35 seek=$(($(blockdev --getsz /dev/sda)*512/4096 - 35))" which seems to always delete any RAID info that is left behind. I created a new partition (NTFS) and ran mkfs.ntfs on the drive. It works fine under Linux. I move it to Windows, on any machine, and it isn't recognized.
Any idea what might be going on here?
