Hello everyone, I own a Razer laptop from school that’s been acting odd. Every time we swap in a new SSD, it gets completely damaged (the disks were checked beforehand). We tried reading the M.2 drives after using them in the laptop, but nothing responded—tested both Windows and Linux. There don’t seem to be any broken parts on the motherboard, and the connector on the M.2 isn’t showing any issues. What could cause a SSD to fail like this? I’m not sure about short circuits yet, but I haven’t checked that either.
