test it on another PC to be sure where the fault lies - it can be a disk controller = mobo problem too<br />
was there an SSD installed before?

I get an error 2102: Detection error on SSD (HDD), on a ThinkPad P51s. The drive is a Samsung V-NAND SSD 860 PRO SATA 512 GB. The drive is new, so the likelihood of it being at fault is low.<br />
It started happening about 1 month after having installed the H/D. It is happening mostly after the laptop is being transported. <br />
To get it working you have to shut down the laptop, and sometimes pressing Esc does the job too.<br />
Any other ideas?

2102: Detection error on SSD (HDD)

Storage devices include any device used for storing and retrieving digital information. Hard disk drives (HDDs) use one or more rigid ("hard") rapidly rotating disks (platters) coated with magnetic material. Data is accessed in a random-access manner, meaning that individual blocks of data can be stored or retrieved in any order and not only sequentially. The primary competing technology for secondary storage is flash memory in the form of solid-state drives (SSDs), but HDDs remain the dominant medium for secondary storage due to advantages in price per bit and per-device recording capacity. CD-RW (Compact Disc-ReWritable) is a digital optical disc storage format that allows information to be stored outside the mechanical HDD.
